Disputed: Needs source information for all facts alleged on this topic. Having done extensive research on other individuals mentioned in this article, I believe most of this material cannot be substantiated and may have had origin in one or more works of fiction. See http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/WYATT.htm, page down to Margaret Wyatt, for contradictory information on this subject. Published biographies of her brother Thomas Wyatt and alleged friend/employer Anne Boleyn do not include any material on Margaret (Wyatt) Lee consistent with alleged facts in this article.--JEA912 20:07, 18 October 2005 (UTC)Reply

I concur. My (very limited!) research suggests that she died in 1536-37, and that the Holbein portait is a c.1540 copy from an early sketch or painting. Anyone want to rewrite this? - PKM 17:29, 10 September 2006 (UTC)Reply

It's not that inaccurate, but it does present certain theories as fact, rather than supposition. Some of the emotional vocab needs trimmed, I'll take a look at it, I'm writing an extended finals' paper on the Boleyns at the moment. If that's ok? Gboleyn 01:04, 13 December 2006 (UTC)Reply

There's some good information about Margaret Lee in Patricia Thomson's Sir Thomas Wyatt and His Background, (London: Routledge and Kegan Paul, 1964). Nicholas Grimald's poem on Margaret Lee figures in one of my dissertation chapters, and according to my citations, that's the source for my information on her. I think the DNB has an entry on her husband, Sir Anthony Lee, but I'll have to double check that.--Blosca (talk) 16:30, 8 May 2008 (UTC)Reply
