Elizabeth first married Henry Bourchier (d. 1462), second son of
Henry Bourchier, 1st Earl of Essex. Her second marriage to
Anthony Woodville, 2nd Earl Rivers produced no children. The earl was a sibling of
Elizabeth Woodville, queen consort of
Edward IV. He became
Lord Scales in his wife's right, and was summoned to
Parliament by that title. After Elizabeth died in 1473, Anthony married a daughter of Henry FitzLewis named Mary, but remained without legitimate issue. He was later beheaded by order of
Richard III due to the threat he posed to Richard usurping from the crown from Anthony's nephew,
Edward V, at
Pontefract on 25 June 1483, but did leave a will. The lands attached to the Rivers title were inherited by Anthony's brother,
Richard Woodville, 3rd Earl Rivers. The
Barony of Scales went to his youngest brother,
Edward Woodville, but Richard III ignored this provision and the title fell into
abeyance. In 1485,
John de Vere, 13th Earl of Oxford and
William Tynedale became heirs to the Scales' estate. ==References==
