John Arundell (of Trerice, died 1580)

Sir John Arundell (died 15 September 1580), of Trerice in Cornwall, was a Member of Parliament for Mitchell, Cornwall, in 1555 and 1558, and was High Sheriff of Cornwall in 1573–1574.

Arms of Arundel of Trerice (and of Arundell of Lanherne & Wardour Castle): Sable, six martlets argent.

Origins

He was the second son and heir of Sir John Arundell (1495–1561), of Trerice, nicknamed "Tilbury Jack" (or "Jack of Tilbury"), a commander of the Royal Navy during the reigns of Kings Henry VIII and Edward VI and twice Sheriff of Cornwall, by his second wife Juliana Erissey, daughter of James Erissey of Erisey and widow of a certain Gourlyn.[1]

Career

He was a retiring figure for much of his life and less celebrated than either his father "Jack of Tilbury" or his son Sir John Arundell, nicknamed "Jack for the King". He was twice a Member of Parliament for the pocket borough of Mitchell, Cornwall, in 1555 and 1558, and was High Sheriff of Cornwall in 1573–1574.

Marriages and children

He was married twice:

  • Firstly to Catherine Coswarth, daughter of John Coswarth and widow of Alan Hill, by whom he had four daughters:[1]
    • Juliana Arundell (born 1563),[1] who married Richard Carew (1555–1620),[2][3] the historian of Cornwall, author of the Survey of Cornwall.
    • Alice Arundell (born 1564), wife of Henry Somaster (d. 1606)[4] of Painsford[5] in the parish of Ashprington, Devon.
    • Dorothy Arundell (born 1566), wife of Edward Coswarth of Coswarth.[1]
    • Mary Arundell (born 1568), wife of Oliver Dynham.[1]
  • Secondly he married Gertrude Denys, a daughter of Sir Robert Denys (died 1592) of Holcombe Burnell in Devon, by his first wife Mary Mountjoy (a first cousin to Lady Jane Grey and second cousin to Elizabeth I, Mary I and Edward VI through their common ancestor Queen Elizabeth Woodville][6]), a daughter of William Blount, 4th Baron Mountjoy (1478–1534),[7] by his fourth wife Dorothy Grey, daughter of Thomas Grey, 1st Marquess of Dorset. Gertrude survived her husband and remarried to Edward, Lord Morley.[8] Her will is housed in the National Archives as "Will of Gertrude Morley, Widow of Trerise" 1635. By Gertrude he had at least eight children including:
    • Ann Arundell (born 1574), wife of William Carnsew of Buckelly (Bokelly).[1]
    • John Arundell (born 1575), died in infancy [9]
    • Sir John Arundell (1576 – c. 1656), eldest son and heir, of Trerice, nicknamed "Jack-for-the-King", MP for Cornwall and for Tregony and Governor of Pendennis Castle, Falmouth, during the Civil War
    • Thomas Arundell (born 1577) of Duloe, MP for West Looe, a soldier who served in the Netherlands.[1]
    • Catherine Arundell (born 1580), wife of John St Aubin of Clowans (St Aubyn of Clowance).[1]
gollark: My "fix" is this:```lua--[["Fix" for bug PS#E9DCC81BSummary: `pcall(getfenv, -1)` seemingly returned the environment outside the sandbox.Based on some testing, this seems like some bizarre optimization-type feature gone wrong.It seems that something is simplifying `pcall(getfenv)` to just directly calling `getfenv` and ignoring the environment... as well as, *somehow*, `function() return getfenv() end` and such.The initial attempt at making this work did `return (fn(...))` instead of `return fn(...)` in an attempt to make it not do this, but of course that somehow broke horribly. I don't know what's going on at this point.This is probably a bit of a performance hit, and more problematically liable to go away if this is actually some bizarre interpreter feature and the fix gets optimized away.Unfortunately I don't have any better ideas. Also, I haven't tried this with xpcall, but it's probably possible, so I'm attempting to fix that too.]]local real_pcall = pcallfunction _G.pcall(fn, ...) return real_pcall(function(...) local ret = {fn(...)} return unpack(ret) end, ...)end local real_xpcall = xpcallfunction _G.xpcall(fn, handler) return real_xpcall(function() local ret = {fn()} return unpack(ret) end, handler)end```which appears to work at least?
gollark: Fixed, but I don't really know how or why.
gollark: ... should I create a bug report?
gollark: It returns two, actually. The second one. I don't know *what* the first one is doing.
gollark: Is this some weird implementation thing or is Lua actually defined/specified to work like this?!
