He was also grandson of John Wydeville who was Sheriff of Northamptonshire (in 1380, 1385, 1390).[3]a2a9b1; font-family: 'Linux Libertine', Georgia, Times, serif; line-height: 1.3;">Marriage and courtly career[edit]="text-decoration-line: none; color: #0b0080; background: none;" title="Jacquetta of Luxembourg" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Jacquetta_of_Luxembourg">Jacquetta of Luxembourg; she was the Duke's second wife and he was significantly older and in ill health. When the Duke died in 1435, Jacquetta was left a childless and wealthy widow. She was required to seek permission from King Henry VI before she could remarry, but in March 1437 it was revealed that she had secretly married Richard Woodville who was far below her in rank and not considered a suitable husband for the lady still honoured as the king's aunt. The couple were fined £1000, but this was remitted in October of the same year.spered, thanks mainly to Jacquetta's continuing prominence within the royal family. She retained her rank and dower as Duchess of Bedford, which initially provided an income of between £7000 and £8000 per year, though over the years this diminished as a result of territorial losses in France and collapsing royal finances in England. Richard Woodville was honoured with military ranks, in which he proved himself a capable soldier.or: #0b0080; background: none;" title="Margaret of Anjou" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Margaret_of_Anjou">Margaret of Anjou, whose uncle was Jacquetta's brother-in-law (Jacquetta's sister Isabelle married Margaret of Anjou's paternal uncle Charles du Maine). The Woodvilles were among those chosen to escort the bride to England, and the family benefited further through this double connection to the royal family. Sir Richard was raised to the rank of Baron Rivers in 1448. Their children therefore would grow up enjoying considerable privilege and material comfort.: #000000; background: none; font-weight: normal; margin: 1em 0px 0.25em; overflow: hidden; padding: 0px; border-bottom: 1px solid #a2a9b1; font-family: 'Linux Libertine', Georgia, Times, serif; line-height: 1.3;">Military career[edit], served in France in 1433 and was a knight of the regent Duke of Bedford in 1435. He was at Gerberoy in 1435 and served under William de la Pole, Duke of Suffolk, in 1435–36. He then fought under Somerset and Shrewsbury in 1439 and the Duke of York in 1441–42, when he was made captain of Alençon and knight banneret. He was appointed seneschal of Gascony in 1450 (but failed to reach it before its fall), lieutenant of Calais in 1454–55, and to defend Kent against invasion by the Yorkist earls in 1459–60 (but was captured at Sandwich). He was created Baron Rivers by Henry VI on 9 May 1448. Two years later, as Sir Richard, he was invested as a Knight of the Garter in 1450. He was appointed Warden of the Cinque Ports in 1459.ound: none;" title="Wars of the Roses" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Wars_of_the_Roses">Wars of the Roses, he was initially a Lancastrian, but he became a Yorkist when he thought that the Lancastrian cause was lost. He reconciled himself to the victorious Edward IV, his future son-in-law. On 1 May 1464, Edward married his daughter Elizabeth, widow of Sir John Grey of Groby. Richard was created Earl Rivers in 1466, appointed Lord Treasurer in March 1466 and Constable of England on 24 August 1467.al; margin: 1em 0px 0.25em; overflow: hidden; padding: 0px; border-bottom: 1px solid #a2a9b1; font-family: 'Linux Libertine', Georgia, Times, serif; line-height: 1.3;">Later career[edit]ially so to the Earl of Warwick. Rivers was regarded as a social upstart, and in an ironical episode, his future son-in-law in 1459, while accepting his submission, had rebuked him for daring, given his lowly birth, to fight against the House of York. The Privy Council, in its horrified response to the King's marriage, said bluntly that Richard Woodville's low social standing in itself meant that the King must surely know "that Elizabeth was not the wife for him". Early in 1468, the Rivers estates were plundered by Warwick's partisans, and the open war of the following year was aimed at destroying the Woodvilles. After the Yorkist defeat at the Battle of Edgecote Moor on 26 July 1469, Rivers and his second son John were taken prisoners at Chepstow. Following a hasty show trial, they were beheaded at Kenilworth on 12 August 1469.b0080; background: none;" title="Anthony Woodville, 2nd Earl Rivers" href="https://en.wikipedia.org/wiki/Anthony_Woodville,_2nd_Earl_Rivers">Anthony succeeded him in the earldom.e="margin: 0.5em 0px; line-height: inherit;">Lord Rivers had a large family.
