The King Who Threw Away His Crown: Seal Lost in the Thames
In this episode, we follow the life and decisions that led James II to cast the instrument of his authority into the Thames and live thirteen years in exile. We trace his upbringing, wartime experiences, private conversion to Catholicism, and the political choices that put him on a collision course with England - and ask what that moment at the river reveals about conviction and sacrifice.
Person: James II (James Stuart)
Date (seal dropped): 11 December 1688
Birth Date: 14 October 1633
Location (birth): St James's Palace, London
Event: Private conversion to Catholicism; refusal to take Test Act oath
- Raised as the second surviving son of Charles I and Henrietta Maria, baptized Anglican and titled Duke of York in childhood.
- Witnessed the Civil War, imprisonment in St James's Palace, escape in 1648, and his father's execution in 1649.
- Served in continental armies (France, then Spain), commanded an Irish regiment by 1652 and rose to Lieutenant-General by 1654.
- After the Restoration he became Lord High Admiral, fought at Lowestoft and Solebay, and kept calm amid lethal naval chaos.
- Secretly received the Catholic Eucharist around 1668-69, kept it private for years, then publicly refused the Test Act in 1673 and resigned rather than disavow his faith.
