Sir Edward Littleton, 2nd Baronet

Sir Edward Littleton of Pillaton Hall, 2nd Baronet (c. 1632–1709), was a Staffordshire landowner and MP, who represented Staffordshire in the Cavalier Parliament.
==Background and early life==

Littleton was descended from Thomas de Littleton, a noted 15th-century jurist. His family had had their seat at Pillaton Hall, near Penkridge, since 1529.〔(Victoria County History: Staffordshire, vol.5, chapter 16, s.2 – Penkridge: Manors. )〕 They had built up substantial landholdings in the area from the mid-16th century, including large areas of Cannock Chase and the deanery manor of the dissolved collegiate church. His father was Sir Edward Littleton, 1st Baronet. His mother was Hester Courten, daughter of Sir William Courten, an immensely wealthy London textile merchant and financier, originally from Menen in Flanders. His birth date is generally given as ''circa'' 1632, although the birth of an Edward Littleton, son of Edward Littleton, is recorded by the Penkridge parish register for 22 January 1633, with the baptism on 5 February.〔(Penkridge parish register records at DustyDocs )〕
Littleton was educated at Shrewsbury School, which he entered in 1644. By this time his father had taken up the royalist side in the English Civil War. He was taken prisoner by the Parliamentary at Worcester in 1642 and his estates were sequestrated〔(The History of Parliament: Members 1632–1709 – Littleton, Sir Edward, 2nd Bt. (Author: A. M. Mimardière) )〕 As he had large debts, Sir Edward was unable to come to an arrangements with the Committee for Compounding with Delinquents. The estates were purchased and saved for the Littletons by the family trustees: Richard Salway and Richard Knightley, a Northamptonshire cousin who was a moderate Parliamentarian and Presbyterian,〔(The History of Parliament: Members 1632–1709 – Knightley, Richard (c.1610–61) (Authors: M. W. Helms / Paula Watson) )〕 and Fisher Littleton, a cousin who lived at Teddesley Lodge.〔(Victoria County History: Staffordshire, vol.5, chapter 16, s.2 – Penkridge: Manors. )〕 The estates were back in family hands by 1654 but the first baronet probably died in 1657: certainly the second baronet had succeeded him in the title by August of that year, and it seems he had held the lands before that.
Presumably Littleton had meanwhile acquired some form of legal training, as he was Commissioner for oyer and terminer at Oxford shortly after the Restoration of Charles II in 1660.〔(The History of Parliament: Members 1660–1690 – Littleton, Sir Edward, 2nd Bt. (Author: A. M. Mimardière) )〕
