Edmund Plowden (colonial governor) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Edmund Plowden (colonial governor)
Sir Edmund Plowden (1590 – July 1659 in Lydbury, Shropshire, England) also titled ''Lord Earl Palatinate, Governor and Captain-General of the Province of New Albion in North America'' was an explorer and colonial governor who attempted to colonize North America in the mid-seventeenth century under a grant for a colony to be named New Albion. This attempt, fraught with mutiny, legal woes, lack of funds, and bad timing and compromised by Plowden's ill-temper, was a failure, and Plowden returned to England in 1649. ==Biography== The grandson of the eminent jurist, Edmund Plowden (1515–1585), Sir Edmund Plowden was born in 1590 to Francis Plowden (1562–1652) of Shiplake Court in Oxfordshire and Wokefield Park in Berkshire and his wife, Mary Fermor. Plowden married Mabel Marriner (1596–1674) in 1609.
