Sir John (12) Shelton, the eldest son of Sir John (11) and Margaret, was High
Sheriff of Norfolk County, England, in 1504. He was knighted in 1509, and was
present as Knight of the Bath at the Coronation of Henry VIII. He married Ann
Boleyn who was the Aunt of Anne Boleyn, the second wife of Henry III. Queen
Anne Boleyn and King Henry VIII were the parents of Elizabeth I (born 1533,
died 1603), who became Queen of England in 1558. Elizabeth I never married.
Sir John (12) and Anne Boleyn were great-uncle and-great aunt to Elizabeth I.
As a protestant, Pricess Elizabeth was the center of suspicion by her
half-sister Queen Mary I(daughter of King Henry VIII and Catherine of Aragon).
The Sheltons were very good to Elizabeth when she was still a princess they
received her into their home at Shelton. On occasions they even hid her within
the tower of Shelton Church. She had her own pew in the church.
When Elizabeth was crowned she summoned her aunt's family to London. They
lived with her in the palace, and their descendants lived at the Court for her
entire reign. Sir John was Governor of the Household of the King. His wife
Anne was governess to Princess (later Queen) Mary.
It was this John Shelton who glazed the east window of St. Mary's Church in
Shelton, Norfolk County, with effigies of himself and his wife. In devotional
attitude, each figure is covered with a surcoat of the respective arms.
