It is really something to sing and dance about.
Dig up those old bones and get them dancing!

Change the two party system
so people against something like abortion
but for something like environmental protection never again get bigger and badder storms
and two bankrupting wars instead.

Po19-2 Thomas de la Pole
Po19-3 Edmond de la Pole
It is assumed that either Thomas or Edmond was father of the following Walter who is described in BE1883 Bradeston as "1st cousin of William, Earl of Suffolk". Because 1 of the dates which are indicative but certainly not conclusive that Walter was of the following generation rather than of the one after, 2 the only brother reported by BE1883 Pole of Suffolk as brother of Michael, 2nd Earl, was Richard who "d.s.p.", and 3 had the cousin really been William then he would probably have been described either as Earl of Pembroke or as Duke of Suffolk rather than Earl of Suffolk although he was that initially, it is assumed that BE1883 was wrong and should have named his 1st cousin as Michael, Earl of Suffolk.
