* Henry Tudor _had never been_ Earl of Richmond. His father was
attainted, and the title was given to Richard Duke of Gloucester, with
whom it merged in the crown. Jasper Tudor _had been_ Earl of Pembroke
before his attainder. Hence Henry Tudor is named as 'calling himself
Earl of Richmond,' while Jasper is 'late Earl of Pembroke.' After the
attainder the Earldom of Pembroke was conferred by Edward IV. on his
son Edward.
