Heiress of her father. Jane Dudley stepped into the centre ground of politics once, taking a hand in arranging the Seymour-Dudley marriage alliance of 1550. In doing so she called upon the bonds among the circle of reformist court ladies of the 1540s of which she, Anne Stanhope, Duchess of Somerset, and perhaps also Anne Preston, Lady Paget formed part. In her will she thanked and rewarded some Spanish courtiers for their assistance to her sons: Don Diego de Acevedo, Don Diego de Mendoza, Gutierre Lopez Padilla, Ruy Gomez, the Duchess of Alva and the Dukes of Alva and Medinaceli. She also, however, left her `tawny velvot jewell coffer' to Susan Clarencieux, her `high backed gowne of wrought velvet' to Lady Paget, and to Lord Paget <http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/Bios/WilliamPaget(1BBeaudasert).htm> one of the `blacke namyled ringes' that she `dyd use to were'.
