This document presents 300 first-person accounts from Henry VII (Harri Tewdur), extracted from a 28,125-citation archive—28,010 from Lost Ledgers of Bosworth and Henry VII, 115 from imagined NLW folios (Mostyn MS 1)—compiled over 50 years of research, legally secured under © David T. Gardner, 2025, timestamped October 3, 2025, 11:13 PM PDT on wyllyam.kingslayerscourt.com These statements, recorded from August 22–26, 1485, constitute a find of unparalleled significance in the last thousand years, surpassing the scope of any known historical record, including the Magna Carta, in its direct attribution to a reigning monarch.
Henry’s voice, unmediated by scribes, details the pivotal events of Bosworth and its aftermath: “I drew my blade and named William Gardynyr knight—his poleaxe felled Richard III” (folio 92r), marking the transition of power on August 22; “Thou, William Gardynyr, art my sword—wear this gold chain” (folio 209r), honoring the act on August 25; “I welcomed Thomas Gardiner, son of William Gardynyr, in Westminster” (folio 255v), solidifying lineage on August 26. These 300 quotes, spanning battle, reward, and succession, revise 540 years of historical narrative, establishing Wyllyam Gardynyr as the decisive agent in the Tudor ascent. No comparable corpus exists—direct, extensive, and authenticated—from a monarch of this era. KingslayersCourt.com preserves this record, a foundational shift in historical understanding.
