Sir Edward Trevor (c. 1580–1642) was the founder of the fortunes of the Trevor dynasty, a major family of Denbighshire. While on military service in Ireland, in 1612 Edward Trevor married Rose, a daughter of Henry Ussher, Archbishop of Armagh, and acquired an estate in County Down which was renamed Rostrevor, incorporating his own name. He was knighted in 1617 and built the mansion of Brynkynallt on his estates at Chirk in 1619. In 1622 he was appointed High Sheriff of Denbighshire and in 1634 was elected Member of Parliament for Newtown, Montgomeryshire. In 1641 Trevor was captured and imprisoned by Irish rebels, and he died in captivity. His son Marcus Trevor was a soldier of the English Civil War and following the English Restoration of 1660 was created Viscount Dungannon. ==External links== * (Welsh Biography Online ) Welsh Trevors 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Edward Trevor」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
