 Francis Lovell, Viscount Lovell - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Francis Lovell, Viscount Lovell (1454- 1487(?)), a supporter of Richard III and son of John, 8th Baron Lovell, probably knew Richard from a young age and was to be a life-long friend and supporter of the future king.
Lovell had command of the fleet which was to have stopped Henry Tudor’s landing in 1485, but failed, and then fought for Richard at the Battle of Bosworth Field (22 August 1485) and after the battle fled to sanctuary at Colchester.
Lovell married Anne Fitzhugh, who was a niece of Warwick, and thus a first cousin of Anne Neville, Queen consort of Richard III.
