William Crowne : ウィキペディア英語版 | William Crowne
William Crowne (1617–1682) had a varied career as an officer of arms, a member of parliament, a colonel during the English civil war, and one of the early colonists of North America. He was also the father of the playwright John Crowne. ==Early and personal life== Different sources have Crowne's birthdate as 1608, 1617 or as late as 1620, but little is known of his early life and education.〔(【引用サイトリンク】work=Dictionary of Canadian Biography Online )〕 As a young man he accompanied his master the Earl of Arundel to Germany and wrote a book about his travels called "''A true relation of all the remarkable places and passages observed in the travels of the right honourable Thomas Lord Hovvard, Earle of Arundell and Surrey, Primer Earle, and Earle Marshall of England, ambassadour extraordinary to his sacred Majesty Ferdinando the second, emperour of Germanie, anno Domini 1636. By Wiliam Crowne Gentleman, London''". As Earl Marshal, Howard controlled appointments to the College of Arms;〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=The history of the Royal heralds and the College of Arms )〕 in 1638 he appointed Crowne Rouge Dragon Pursuivant, one of the four junior officers of arms.〔White, ''John Crown and America'', p448〕 Crowne continued to hold this office, even while in North America, until his resignation in 1661.〔 Between 1635 and 1640 Crowne married Agnes Watts (née Mackworth), widow of Richard Watts (the son of alderman and Lord Mayor of London John Watts)〔 and sister of Humphrey Mackworth, later governor of Shrewsbury and a member of Cromwell's Council of State. Crowne and his wife had 3 children, of whom the eldest, John became a well-known dramatist.〔White, ''John Crown and America'', p450〕
