Back in the sixties, there was a one hit wonder called "Lady Godiva". It was all about this would-be actress who got conned into performing in x-rated productions. The song came from a legend about a "Lady Godiva" way back in history. Well, the legend is true. This is Lady Godiva de Becket, SISTER OF SAINT THOMAS de Becket. She died in 1088, and is my 28th great grandmother in the Smith line. The story is true, she actually rode thru the town her husband, Sir......., owned. Stark buck naked. He said if she would do it, he would lower taxes on the people in his fiefdom. She did, and the rest is history.
