Agnes Howard (née Tilney) (c. 1477 – May 1545) was the second wife of Thomas Howard 2nd Duke of Norfolk. Two of King Henry VIII’s Queens were her step-granddaughters Anne Boleyn and Katherine Howard. After her mother’s death Katherine Howard was in the Dowager Duchess’s care during her youth and as a result of the Duchess’s lax guardianship committed sexual indiscretions while in the Duchess’s household which led to her execution as Queen.
