Henry VIII of England married Catherine of Aragon on June 11, 1509. The wedding was low-key and held at the friar's church in Greenwich a fortnight before Henry's coronation. Catherine was a member of the Third Order of Saint Francis and she was punctilious in her religious obligations in the Order, integrating without demur her necessary duties as queen with her personal piety. Of their six children, only one daughter, the future Mary I lived and the marriage was annulled in 1533.
