Details
Michael Joseph (better known as Michael An Gof, where An Gof is Cornish for "blacksmith"; died 24 June 1497) and Thomas Flamank (a Bodmin landowner's son and London lawyer) were the leaders of the Cornish Rebellion of 1497. The rebels marched on London to protest at King Henry VII's levying a tax to pay for an invasion of Scotland in retaliation for the Scots' support for the pretender Perkin Warbeck. The Cornish believed that this was a northern affair and had nothing to do with them; they also believed that the tax was the work of the King's corrupt counsellors and marched to London to bring this to the King's attention. They were hopeful of gaining support from people in Kent the focus of Jack Cade's rebellion of 1450 but despite heading to Cade's former rallying site at Blackheath they gained little backing. As a result, the Cornish rebels were beaten by the King's forces at the Battle of Deptford Bridge on 17 June 1497 on a site adjacent to the River Ravensbourne. An Gof fled to Greenwich after the battle, but was captured and sent to the Tower of London. As one of the leaders, An Gof was executed with Flamank on 24 June 1497.
