Although her sister, Anne, the queen; her brother, George, executed alongside Anne; and her father, Thomas, are most remembered by history, Mary was the Boleyn who set into motion the chain of events that brought about the family\u2019s meteoric rise to power, as well as the one who managed to escape their equally remarkable fall.
