Streynsham Master
Sir Streynsham Master (28 October 1640 – 28 April 1724) was one of the 17th century pioneers of the English East India Company. He served as the Agent of Madras from 27 January 1678 to 3 July 1681 and is credited with having introduced the first administrative reforms in the Madras Government.
Returning to England, in 1692 he bought the Codnor Castle estate and for the rest of his life divided his time between Derbyshire and London.
== Early career ==
Streynsham Master had a distinguished career in the East India Company right from his early days. He served as the Acting President of the Company's factory at Surat during the visit of the President Aungier to the new colony at Bombay. After the return of Aungier, Master served for some time as a member of the Council. In 1670 he led the English in the successful defence of Surat from the Marathas. In 1676, even before Langhorne's removal from power, Master was nominated in advance as the next Agent of Madras in the case of Emergency. In the meantime, until the end of Langhorne's tenure, Master served for a time as the Agent of the Company's factory at Masulipatnam and then Bengal, before he was sent back to Madras to take office as the second member of the Council.
