Edmund Prideaux : ウィキペディア英語版 | Sir Edmund Prideaux, 1st Baronet of Ford Abbey
Edmund Prideaux (died 1659) of Ford Abbey, Thornecombe, Devonshire,〔Later in Dorsetshire〕 was an English lawyer and Member of Parliament, who supported the Parliamentary cause during the Civil War. He was briefly solicitor-general but chose to resign rather than participate in the regicide of King Charles I and was afterwards attorney-general which position he held until he died. During the Civil War and for most of the First Commonwealth he ran the postal service for Parliament. ==Origins== Prideaux was born at Netherton House in the parish of Farway, near Honiton, Devon, and was the second son of Sir Edmund Prideaux, 1st Baronet (d.1629), of Netherton, an eminent lawyer of the Inner Temple and member of an ancient family which originated at Prideaux Castle in Cornwall, by his second wife, Catherine Edgecombe, daughter of Piers Edgecombe of Mount Edgecumbe in Devonshire (now in Cornwall).
