Oliver Luke (1574–1648) was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons of England from 1614 to 1648. Luke was born at Cople Bedfordshire, the son of Sir Nicholas Luke and his wife Margaret St John.〔(Bedfordshire County Council Manors )〕 In 1614, Luke was elected Member of Parliament for Bedfordshire in the Addled Parliament. He was High Sheriff of Bedfordshire in 1617. He was elected for succeeding parliaments until King Charles dispensed with parliament in 1629. He was subsequently elected for the Short Parliament in April 1640 and for the Long Parliament in November 1640. He remained a supporter of the parliamentary forces but was excluded under Pride's Purge in 1648. Luke probably died around the age of 74 after he was excluded from the Long Parliament.〔( 'Parishes: Cople', A History of the County of Bedford: Volume 3 (1912), pp. 238-242 Date accessed: 27 September 2010 )〕 Luke married Elizabeth Knightley, daughter of Sir Valentine Knightley and Anne Unton on 17 August 1599. Their son Samuel Luke was also an MP. ==References== 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「Oliver Luke」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
