Algernon Percy, 10th Earl of Northumberland
Algernon Percy, 10th Earl of Northumberland, 4th Baron Percy, KG (29 September 1602 – 13 October 1668) was an English military leader〔(A.Percy ), National Portrait Gallery, accessed May 2009〕 and a prominent supporter of the Parliamentary cause in the English Civil War.
==Family background==
Algernon Percy was the third, but eldest surviving, son of Henry Percy, 9th Earl of Northumberland, the so-called 'Wizard Earl.' His mother was Dorothy Percy ''née'' Devereux, Countess of Northumberland, daughter of Walter Devereux, 1st Earl of Essex and sister of Robert Devereux, 2nd Earl of Essex, one of Elizabeth I's favourites who was executed for treason in 1601. In 1605, the 9th Earl was accused of either participation or complicity in the Gunpowder Plot, and as a result, he was imprisoned in the Tower of London until 1621. The 9th Earl exerted influence on young Algernon's education in spite of his imprisonment, and Algernon frequently stayed with the 9th Earl in the Tower for 4 or 5 days at a time.〔 On the model of King James I's ''Basilikon Doron'', the 9th Earl wrote an essay of advice to his son in 1609.〔
His sister, Lucy Hay ''née'' Percy, dowager countess of Carlisle, and his younger brother, Henry Percy, were members of the household of Charles I's queen, Henrietta Maria.〔 Another sister, Dorothy, was married to Robert Sidney, 2nd Earl of Leicester.
