John Arundell (born 1576) : ウィキペディア英語版 | John Arundell (born 1576) John VII Arundell (1576–1654),〔Date of death 1654 per Duffin & Hunneyball〕 Esquire, of Trerice in Cornwall, later given the epithet "Jack for the King", was a member of an ancient Cornish gentry family, who as a Royalist during the Civil War served King Charles I as Governor of Pendennis Castle, Falmouth, which in 1646 he retained in a heroic manner during a five month long siege by Fairfax, during which his forces were reduced by hunger to eating their horses, and finally received an honourable surrender. He served twice as MP for the prestigious county seat of Cornwall (1601 and 1621), and for his family's pocket boroughs〔Duffin & Hunneyball〕 of Tregony (1628) and Mitchell (1597) and also for St Mawes (1624).〔Duffin, Anne & Hunneyball, Paul, biography of ''Arundell, John (1576-1654), of Trerice, Newlyn, Cornw.'', published in ''History of Parliament, House of Commons 1604-1629'', ed. Andrew Thrush and John P. Ferris, 2010 ()〕 His family "of Trerice" should not be confused with the contemporary ancient and even more prominent Cornish family of Arundell "of Lanherne", six miles north of Trerice, "The Great Arundells",〔Leland, quoted in Magna Britannia, Vol.3, 1814, ''Cornwall: General history: Extinct peers and baronial families''〕 with which no certain shared origin has been found,〔Lysons, Magna Britannia, Vol.3, 1814, ''Cornwall: General history: Extinct peers and baronial families''())〕 but which shared the same armorials, the Arundell swallows. ==Origins==
He was born in 1576 the eldest son and heir, by his second wife, of John VI Arundell (d.1580) of Trerice, a Member of Parliament for Mitchell, Cornwall, in 1555 and 1558, and Sheriff of Cornwall in 1573-1574, who built the present mansion house at Trerice in about 1572.〔(Visitation of the County of Cornwall in the Year 1620 )〕 His mother was Gertrude Denys, a daughter of Sir Robert Denys (d.1592) of Holcombe Burnell in Devon, by his first wife Mary Mountjoy (a first cousin to Lady Jane Grey〔Vivian, Lt.Col. J.L., (Ed.) The Visitation of the County of Devon: Comprising the Heralds' Visitations of 1531, 1564 & 1620, Exeter, 1895, p.102〕), a daughter of William Blount, 4th Baron Mountjoy (1478–1534),〔Vivian, 1895, p.280, pedigree of Dennis of Holcombe Burnell, erroueously "Walter, Lord Mountjoy"〕 by his fourth wife Dorothy Grey, daughter of Thomas Grey, 1st Marquess of Dorset. Gertrude survived her husband and remarried to Edward, Lord Morley.〔Vivian, 1895, p.280〕 John VII's younger brother was Thomas Arundell of Duloe, Cornwall, MP for West Looe, a soldier who served in the Netherlands.〔Vivian, 1887, p.12〕 His grandfather was Sir John IV Arundell (1495–1561), of Trerice, later known as ''Jack of Tilbury'', an Esquire of the Body to King Henry VIII whom he served as Vice-Admiral of the West. He was knighted at the Battle of the Spurs in 1513 and was twice as Sheriff of Cornwall, in 1532 and in 1541.〔
