Earl of Pembroke

The earldom of Pembroke, associated with Pembroke Castle in Wales, was created by King Stephen of England. Several times the line has become extinct, and the earldom has been re-created, starting the count over again with a new first earl. On 1 September 1533 King Henry VIII created Anne Boleyn Marchinoness of Pembroke in her own right, a signal honor, because his great-uncle Jasper Tudor had been the earl of Pembroke.
