♔ TODAY IN HISTORY ♔ - 25 August 1482: Margaret of Anjou, formerly Queen of England, dies aged 52 in Anjou as a poor relative of King Louis XI of France. She had outlived her husband Henry VI, as well her only son Edward of Westminster, Prince of Wales, and her death came almost a year before that of her nemesis, Edward IV. The former queen was buried in Angers Cathedral beside her parents, but sadly her tomb was desecrated during the French Revolution.
