From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

John de Vere, 12th Earl of Oxford (23 April 1408 – 26 February 1462) was the son of Richard de Vere, 11th Earl of Oxford. A minor at his father's death in 1417, he came to the earldom in 1429. His wife was Elizabeth Howard, a first cousin of the 1st Duke of Norfolk.

A staunch Lancastrian, he remained loyal to Henry VI during the early phases of the Wars of the Roses. At the accession of Edward IV, de Vere and his oldest son Aubrey were arrested and executed by John Tiptoft, Earl of Worcester and Constable of England. Due to Edward's policy of conciliation, however, John's son by the same name was allowed to succeed as John de Vere, 13th Earl of Oxford in 1464. His daughter Joane or Jane was the maternal grandmother of Gertrude Tyrell.
