:''For other people of the same name, see John Trevor (disambiguation)'' Sir John Trevor (1626 – 28 May 1672) was a Welsh politician who sat in the House of Commons at various times between 1646 and 1672. ==Biography== Trevor was a son of Sir John Trevor (d. 1673) of Trevalyn Hall, Denbighshire.〔(W R Williams ''The Parliamentary History of the Principality of Wales'' )〕 His father was a member of parliament under James I and Charles I, and sat also in the parliaments of Oliver and of Richard Cromwell, and was a member of the council of state during the Commonwealth. In 1646, Trevor was elected Member of Parliament for Flintshire in the Long Parliament and sat until the Barebones Parliament of 1653. Thereafter he was re-elected MP for Flintshire in 1654 for the First Protectorate Parliament, in 1656 for the Second Protectorate Parliament and in 1659 for the Third Protectorate Parliament. After filling several public positions under the Commonwealth and Protectorate he was a member of the council of state appointed in February 1660 and under Charles II, he rose to a high position. Having purchased the office of secretary of state he was knighted and entered upon its duties towards the end of 1668, just after he had helped to arrange an important treaty between England and France. Trevor predeceased his father by a year, dying on 28 May 1672. 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「John Trevor (1626–1672)」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
