  Notes	The Complete Peerage vol.VIII,pp.48-49. http://www.hull.ac.uk/php/cssbct/cgi-bin/gedlkup.php/n=royal?royal06374 http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/DUDLEY.htm#Edmund%20DUDLEY%20(Chancellor%20of%20Exchequer) descended from a baronial family, he was trained in the law and rose rapidly in the favour of «u»«b»Henry VII <http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/aboutHenryVII.htm>«/u»«/b». He was a royal councillor from early in the reign and in 1506 was appointed «u»President of the Council <http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/Documents/lord_president_of_the_council.htm>«/u», an unusual post giving him, it seems, a dignity at council meetings equal to that usually held by the Lord Chancellor. That he was high in the esteem of «u»«b»Henry VII <http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/aboutHenryVII.htm«/u»«/b» is shown by bis appointment in 1504 as «u»Speaker of the House of Commons <http://www.tudorplace.com.ar/Documents/parliaments_and_speakers.htm>«/u», a post at that time within the gift of the Crown.
