Joan has the dubious honour of being the first English queen to be accused of witchcraft. She became Queen after marrying King Henry IV (Henry Bolingbroke), when he died her step-son became Henry V. He then decided to get his hands on Joan's vast wealth by accusing her of witchcraft and taking all her lands as "forfeit". Her tomb can be found in the very beautiful Canterbury Cathedral.
