Question:

Does anyone els agree that HenryVll rather than Richard lll?

had more reason than Richard to kill off the Plantangenet heirs. Most of them seem to have died after Henry succeeded to the Throne.

I suspect you are right. I certainly think that history has treated Richard very badly and anyone interested in that theory might like to read "The Seventh Son" by Reay Tannahill. Although a novel,, it is based on the author's belief that Richard was quite a good guy and did not murder the princes.
