George Rolle (c. 1486 – 1552) of Stevenstone was the founder of the wealthy, influential and widespread Rolle family of Devon, which by 1873 in the person of Hon. Mark Rolle (died 1907), the adoptive heir of John Rolle, 1st Baron Rolle (died 1842), had become the largest landowner in Devon with about 55,000 acres. He was a Dorset-born London lawyer who became in 1507 Keeper of the Records of the Court of Common Pleas and sat as MP for Barnstaple in 1542 and 1545.〔(Hawkyard, A.D.K., biography of George Rolle published in History of Parliament: House of Commons 1509-1558, Vol.3, London, 1982 )〕 He became the steward of Dunkeswell Abbey in Devon, and following the Dissolution of the Monasteries he purchased much ex-monastic land in Devon. ==Origins== George Rolle's place of birth is unknown, but he is known to have been related to Thomas Rolle (died 1525) who had been born at Wimborne Minster in Dorset and whose uncle was William Rolle, parson of Witchampton in Dorset.〔(Proceedings of Dorset Natural History & Antiquarian Field Club ), Vol.35, First Summer meeting, Valley of the Win or Allen, visit to Witchampton on Thursday, 5 June 1913.〕 Both George Rolle and William Rolle were joint-remaindermen in the will of Thomas Rolle (died 1525).〔
