Proclamation declaring James VI & I King of England, 1603

Excitingly, Tracy has curated a display of original records relating to the tumultuous succession to Elizabeth I, including Henry VIII's will and this 1603 proclamation declaring the Scottish James VI King of England [TNA SP 14/1], which will be on display after Tracy's talk [2/3].

I’m so looking forward to this. It’s going to be incredible to have some of the documents in the room that tell the dramatic story of the battle for Elizabeth’s throne 🤩🤩🤩 @hodderbooks.bsky.social
