You're correct. I was recalling a story from the 1990's when two small unidentified lead coffins were found in a small vault next to one which contained the bodies, identified by markings, of two other of Edward's and Elizabeth's children. At the time it was speculated they were the bodies of the two missing princes and I must have remembered some of the wilder and less accurate reports. The Queen has not granted permission for that side chamber to be opened and those unidentified coffins to be examined so who or what's in them is still unknown. I did also read someone's opinion that Henry VII would be the one likely "suspect" in the princes' disappearance other than Richard III but also that their disappearance predates his accession to the throne and access to the Tower. So I agree it's possible Henry Tudor done the dirty deed but would, with all due respect, still consider Richard or one of his people as the lead suspect(s). I think you'd agree that differences of opinion are possible.

There’s no real evidence the boys died at all. They may have been smuggled out of England. All the Plantagenet children - including Richard - were often smuggled into Flanders during times of trouble. But it’s all speculation. Perhaps Perkin Warbeck was Richard, Duke of York. Even if the bones in the urn in Westminster Abby were found to be the princes, we still wouldn’t know who killed them or whether they died of illness. And if Richard had them killed - well, as Protector he was coming very close to being murdered himself. Most Protectors were murdered. But it would have been weirdly out of character.

Do you have a link or a hint about Edward’s other children? I’ve never heard of that. Are you thinking of Anne Mowbrey, Richard, Duke of York’s child bride? She was found fairly recently.
