William Nassau de Zuylestein, 1st Earl of Rochford (1649 – 12 July 1708) was a Dutch soldier and diplomat in the service of William III of England. During the reign of James II of England he travelled to England to liaise with William's English supporters, and played an important part in the preparations of the Glorious Revolution.〔Hugh Dunthorne, ‘(Nassau van Zuylestein, William Frederick van, first earl of Rochford (1649–1708) )’, ''Oxford Dictionary of National Biography'', Oxford University Press, Sept 2004; online edn, Oct 2007, accessed 2 Dec 2009.〕
==Early life==
He was born at the Zuylestein Castle (also spelled ''Zuylenstein''), about twenty miles east of the city of Utrecht. He was the eldest son of Frederick Nassau de Zuylestein, and his first wife Mary Killigrew, the eldest daughter of Sir William Killigrew. She was a first cousin of Charles II's illegitimate daughter, the Countess of Yarmouth. She moved to the Netherlands in February 1644, aged barely seventeen, as a maid of honour to Mary, princess royal of England and princess of Orange, and married Frederick in 1648.
