"Clarence's position in the line of succession was obviously of prime importance to Warwick, who now began his machinations that would one day earn him his nickname, the Kingmaker. It was around the time of Clarence's marriage into Warwick's family that, on the Continent and among Warwick's allies, rumors of Edward's bastardy- rumors that implied that Clarence was the true heir of the Yorkist monarchy- can first be traced with certainty. It has been suggested that Clarence's mother, Cecily, had recently told him this was true: that his older brother Edward had been conceived in adultery. In 1469, the year of Clarence's marriage, Edward asked his mother to exchange the castle of Fotheringhay, into which she had poured both money and effort, for the run-down Berhamsted in Hertfordshire." - [S155] Richard III: England's Black Legend, Desmond Seward, (New York: Pegasus Books, 2014), 43.
