Hi, Carol. I don't "know" that Richard and Anne had another son, but Michael Hicks, of all people, suggests that they may have had two sons, one born in 1473 (they were married in 1472) and the other in 1476. Both dates have been given as the birth year for Edward of Warwick, with the preference given to 1476 because Rous gives his age as seven at the time he was made Prince of Wales. Hicks discusses the possibility of a second son in an article that I've read but no longer have access to, "One Prince or Two? The Family of Richard III" in the Ricardian, volume 9, issue 122 (September 1993), pp. 467-468.
I forget where I heard that the other (first?) son may have been named George, but it would make sense since the brothers seem to have named their legitimate sons after each other.
