Anne Bolyne and Henry VIII had three children, two of whom died at birth. Where were they buried?

Answer 1

I've been searching for half an hour and haven't come up with anything.

Henry was not pleased at the subsequent failed pregnancies of his second wife; one source says that the second was to be kept secret. Taking into account the superstitions of the times, and the lack of recorded evidence in many cases, it seems to me that the two small bodies would probably have been taken away by the well-paid midwives and buried secretly and quietly where they might have known a place. It would not have been in Henry's interests to have advertised two children who had not lived, and whose births might have been subject to speculation and possible impostors to the throne.

I will research this further in my books and come back if I find anything more to say.

Edit: it is likely, according to several sources, that her second child may have been deformed. In this case, it would have been imperative to keep it secret, as deformities were at that time associated with witchcraft and the devil - precisely one of the charges levelled against Anne, along with treason and incest. I do think that the "evidence" would have been quietly disposed of and the incident played down.

Answer 2

Since neither child came to full term, I doubt that either one was afforded a burial.
