Kdo se je poročil s Henry Compton?

Henry Compton, 1st Baron Compton (14 July 1544 – 10 December 1589), was an English peer and Member of Parliament.

Compton was the posthumous son of Peter Compton of Compton Wynyates and his wife Anne, daughter of George Talbot, 4th Earl of Shrewsbury, and the grandson of Sir William Compton. He was trained in the law at Gray's Inn (1563). He succeeded his father in 1544 and was knighted in 1567.

He was elected a Member (MP) of the Parliament of England for Old Sarum in 1563 and was appointed High Sheriff of Warwickshire for 1571–1572. In 1572, he was summoned to the House of Lords as Baron Compton, of Compton in the County of Warwick. After his ennoblement, Lord Compton was one of the peers at the trial of Mary, Queen of Scots, in 1586.

Lord Compton died in December 1589, aged 45, and was succeeded in the barony by his son from his first marriage, William, who was created Earl of Northampton in 1618.

Anne Sackville, Countess of Dorset (died 22 September 1618), née Anne Spencer, was the second wife of Robert Sackville, 2nd Earl of Dorset. Dorset was her third husband, the first two being William Stanley, 3rd Baron Monteagle, and Henry Compton, 1st Baron Compton, both of whom predeceased her.

She was the daughter of Sir John Spencer of Althorp and his wife, the former Katherine Kitson. She married Lord Monteagle as his second wife in September 1575. They had no children of their own, and he died in 1581.

She married Sir Henry Compton, as his second wife, within a few years of her first husband's death. They had one son, Sir Henry Compton, MP. Anne's second husband died in 1589. A revised version of Edmund Spenser's poem, "Mother Hubberd's Tale", published in 1590, was dedicated to Anne as "the Lady Compton and Mountegle".

Anne married the future earl on 4 December 1592, a year after the death of his first wife, the former Lady Margaret Howard. Whereas his first marriage had been a happy one, he described his second wife in his will as one "whom without great grief and sorrow inconsolable I cannot remember, in regard of her exceeding unkindness and intolerable evil usage towards myself and my late good lord and father deceased".

Dorset complained about his second wife's "misconduct", and was considering a separation from her at the time of his death in 1609. However, Cecily, one of his daughters from his first marriage, married his stepson Henry Compton, by whom she had three children.

In March 1610 Anne, Countess of Dorset, argued and fought with officers sent to administer Lord Compton's estate, and was sent to the Fleet Prison.
