Alice Glaston: Family History

Alice Glaston lived between 1535 and 1546, and remains the youngest girl ever legally executed in England. But as of today, we know significantly more about her death than we do about her life.

But, we are slowly but surely unpicking Alice unique story piece by piece, and now have uncovered small pockets of information that we hope will lead us to learn more.

The tragic thing is, we don't know if Alice had a family. We don't know if Alice lived with her mother, her father, or if she surrounded herself with blood relations.

But, what we do know is that Alice's bloodline originated not in Shropshire, but in Scotland. With this information, we hope to one day, discover even more about her family life, and follow the subtle clues.
