[edit] Early life
Thomas was born after two short-lived sons, one of whom had also been baptised Thomas. He was born at Woodstock Palace in Oxfordshire. He married Eleanor de Bohun in 1376, and inherited the title Earl of Essex from his father-in-law, Humphrey de Bohun, 7th Earl of Hereford. Woodstock's wife's younger sister, Mary de Bohun, was subsequently married to Henry "Bolingbroke," who eventually became Henry IV of England.

At the age of 22, in 1377, Woodstock was created Earl of Buckingham. In 1385 he received the title Duke of Aumale, and at about the same time was created Duke of Gloucester.

[edit] Dispute with King Richard II
Thomas was the leader of the Lords Appellant, a group of powerful nobles whose ambition to wrest power from King Richard II of England (Thomas' nephew) culminated in a successful rebellion in 1388, which significantly weakened the king's power. Richard II managed to dispose of the Lords Appellant in 1397, and Thomas was imprisoned in Calais to await trial for treason. He was, however, murdered the same year by Nicholas Colfox, presumably on behalf of Richard II, causing an outcry amongst the nobility of England which is considered by many to have added to Richard's unpopularity.

[edit] Heirs
Thomas and his wife had one son and four daughters. Following his murder his title was forfeit and did not pass to his son, Humphrey.

His eldest daughter, Anne of Gloucester, married into the powerful Stafford family, who were Earls of Stafford and Dukes of Buckingham, and four generations after Thomas, the disposition of the de Bohun estates may have been a motivating factor in the involvement of Henry Stafford, 2nd Duke of Buckingham in plots against the crown during the period of Richard III. She later married into the Bourchier family (the Earls of Bath) and established a long American line of descendants.

[FAVthomas.FTW]

Powerful opponent of King Richard II of England (ruled 1377/99). Theseventh son of King Edward III (ruled 1327/77), he was created Duke ofGloucester in 1385 and soon became the leader of a party opposed toRichard II, his young nephew. In 1386 Gloucester and his associates,later known as the appellants, took virtual control of the king'sgovernment. Gloucester defeated one of Richard's favourites, Robert deVere, Duke of Ireland, at Radcot Bridge, Oxfordshire, in December 1387and then had a number of the king's friends executed. In 1389 Richardgained the upper hand and worked out a compromise with his enemies.Gloucester was made lieutenant of Ireland in 1392, but in 1397 Richardarrested him and two other leading appellants. Committed to the charge ofThomas Mowbray, Earl of Nottingham (later Duke of Norfolk), at theEnglish port of Calais, France, Gloucester was murdered, possibly onorders from Richard. According to one of Mowbray's servants, who waslater executed for his part in the crime, the duke was suffocated with afeather bed.
