Biography

Of Trinity College Cambridge; raised by Charles I to the earldom of Stamford in 1628. Parliamentary commander in the south-west during the early years of the war — he was defeated at Stratton in May 1643 by Sir Bevil Grenville's Cornish royalists and lost Exeter to Prince Maurice later that summer. Withdrew to private life after 1645. A moderate Presbyterian lay assessor at the Assembly; sat through the Long Parliament's reduced years and survived to the Restoration. Died in 1673.

Role at the Assembly

Lay Assessor — House of Lords

Parliament seated lay assessors from both Houses to sit with the divines and represent its interest. Ten peers were named from the House of Lords as lay assessors; like the Commons assessors they had voice in the Assembly but were not voting members, and they attended as their other duties allowed.
