Date of death

[edit]

@Deamonpen, Dimadick, and Aciram: the first sentence says Margaret died in 1537, without a source. The last sentence says she died in 1525 and cites Geevers.[1] The Nouvelle Biographie Nationale says "morte en Allemagne après 1531" [died in Germany after 1531].[2] @Tfjt: has written de:Margarethe von Helfenstein, which says she died in 1537 in Liège. Does anyone have sources to confirm which is correct?

OK, I have just found out these two German sources which say she died in 1537 in Liège.
