William Digges
Colonel William Digges (c1651- 24 July 1697) was a politician in Colonial Virginia and a councillor in Colonial Maryland in the late seventeenth and early eighteenth centuries. He was a member of the Maryland Proprietary Council until losing his office in 1689 during the Protestant Revolution, when the Calvert Proprietorship was overthrown by a Puritan revolt.〔(History of the Digges family in Maryland ) Retrieved January 2012〕
==Early life==
William Digges was born in Virginia in around 1651, the eldest son of Edward Digges (1620-1674/5), an English barrister and colonist who served as the Colonial Governor of Virginia from March 1655 to December 1656. Edward Digges invested heavily in planting mulberry trees and promoting the silk industry in the colony, in recognition of which he was appointed Auditor-General of Virginia. In around 1675 Edward Digges died. As eldest son, William inherited the "E.D. Plantation", later known as Bellfield.〔Tyler, Lyon G., "Pedigree of a Representative Virginia Planter", ''William & Mary Quarterly'' Jan. 1893 http://files.usgwarchives.net/va/schools/wmmary/quarterly/planter.txt〕
