George Abbot (author)
George Abbot (ca. 1603? – 2 February 1648) was an English writer, known as "The Puritan" and a politician who sat in the House of Commons in two periods between 1640 and 1648.
==Life==
Abbot was son or grandson (it is not clear which) of Sir Thomas Abbot of Easington, East Yorkshire and his mother (or grandmother) was of the ancient house of Pickering. He matriculated from King's College, Cambridge in 1622. In April 1640, he was elected Member of Parliament for Tamworth in the Short Parliament. In the English civil war, he made a notable defence of the house at Caldecote, Warwickshire, which he had acquired through marriage. On 15 August 1642, with eight men, his mother and maids, he held out against Princes Rupert and Maurice with 18 troops of horses and dragoons. He was re-elected MP for Tamworth in 1645 for the Long Parliament and held the seat until his death in 1648.
