Nathaniel Hallowes
Nathaniel Hallowes (1582β1661) of Dethick, Derbyshire was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons of England from 1640 to 1653 and again in 1659. He was an active Parliamentarian during the English Civil War. Biography Hallowes was born at Derby, the son of Thomas Hallowes and his wife Kathryn. He purchased properties in Dethick, Thornsett and Mugginton in Derbyshire and Muston, Leicestershire. By 1640 he was an Alderman of Derby. In April 1640, Hallowes was elected Member of Parliament for Derby for the Short Parliament. He was re-elected in November 1640 for the Long Parliament. By December 1642 he was showing his colours in the parliamentary cause when he was a signatory of a letter to the Speaker on 13 December explaining the Derby militia's unwillingness to spare some of the 700 men requested by Fairfax and others because they were needed to defend Derby from "malignants". The blame was put on Sir John Coke for his lack of support. In December 1647 when h ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
Dethick Manor
Dethick Manor is a 16th-century manor house, situated at Dethick, Amber Valley, Derbyshire, much altered in the 18th century and converted to use as a farmhouse. It is a Grade II* listed building. The manor of Dethick was anciently owned by the eponymous family. On the death in 1403 of Robert Dethick, the heir to the family's property at Dethick (though not the last Dethick male - the family owned land in Breadsall and Newhall in Derbyshire), the property passed to Thomas Babington who had married Isabel, the elder of Robert's two daughters. Babington was the son of Sir John Babington and nephew of Sir William Babington, Chief Justice in 1423. The son of Isabel and Thomas, Sir John Babington of Dethick (High Sheriff of Derbyshire in 1479) died in 1485 at the Battle of Bosworth Field. His son Thomas and his grandson Anthony both served as High Sheriff. The manor house, dating from the 15th century, was rebuilt by the Babington family in the 16th century. Sir Anthony Babin ...

Pride's Purge
Pride's Purge is the name commonly given to an event that took place on 6 December 1648, when soldiers prevented members of Parliament considered hostile to the New Model Army from entering the House of Commons of England. Despite defeat in the First English Civil War, Charles I retained significant political power. This allowed him to create an alliance with Scots Covenanters and Parliamentarian moderates to restore him to the English throne. The result was the 1648 Second English Civil War, in which he was defeated once again. Convinced only his removal could end the conflict, senior commanders of the New Model Army took control of London on 5 December. The next day, soldiers commanded by Colonel Thomas Pride forcibly excluded from the Long Parliament those MPs viewed as their opponents, and arrested 45. The purge cleared the way for the execution of Charles in January 1649, and establishment of the Protectorate in 1653; it is considered the only recorded military ''coup d'Γ ...

Rump Parliament
The Rump Parliament was the English Parliament after Colonel Thomas Pride commanded soldiers to purge the Long Parliament, on 6 December 1648, of those members hostile to the Grandees' intention to try King Charles I for high treason. "Rump" normally means the hind end or back-side of a mammal; its use meaning "remnant" was first recorded in the above context in English in 1649. Treaty of Newport In September 1648, at the end of the Second English Civil War, the Long Parliament was concerned with the increasing radicalism in the New Model Army. The Long Parliament began negotiations with King Charles I. The members wanted to restore the king to power, but wanted to limit the authority he had. Charles I conceded militia power, among other things, but he later admitted that it was only so he could escape. In November the negotiations began to fail, and the New Model Army seized power. Charles I was then taken into the Army's custody to await trial for treason. Pride's Purge The ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |
