High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! Margaret Stanley, Countess of Derby, née Clifford (1540- 28 September 1596) was the only surviving daughter of Henry Clifford, 2nd Earl of Cumberland and Lady Eleanor Brandon. Her maternal grandparents were Charles Brandon, 1st Duke of Suffolk and Mary Tudor, former queen consort of France. Mary was the fifth daughter of King Henry VII of England and Elizabeth of York. According to the will of Henry VIII, Margaret was in line to inherit the throne of England. Upon the death of her mother she became seventh in line. However, both her cousins Jane Grey and Mary Grey died without issue, and their sister, her other cousin, Catherine Grey, died without the legitimacy of her two sons ever being proven. Margaret quickly moved up to becoming the first in line to the throne, but died prior to the death of Elizabeth I. Margaret married Henry Stanley, 4th Earl of Derby on 7 February 1554. They had five children.
