Biography
     Although the Lovelace family traced its origins to the mid-fifteenth century,13 by 1247 it had settled at Bethersden, in the Weald of Kent, and in 1367 purchased the property which was to become Lovelace Place.14 Two members of the family, possibly brothers, joined Cade’s Rebellion in 1450; another allegedly played a crucial role during the Second Battle of St. Albans (1461) by withdrawing his Yorkist contingent from the fight.15 It was probably this man’s son, Sir Richard Lovelace, who served as marshal of Calais under Henry VII and was knighted after the Battle of Blackheath (1497).16 In 1511 Sir Richard’s estates passed to a collateral branch of the family. Seated near Sittingbourne, in north Kent, its most notable member was Serjeant William Lovelace, who married the daughter of a Canterbury alderman, served as the city’s counsel from 1559 and represented the constituency in Parliament three times under Elizabeth. Although Serjeant Lovelace raised the social standing of his family, obtaining a grant of arms in 1573 on the basis of his descent from Sir Richard,17 his purchase of Canterbury’s St. Lawrence Hospital saddled his eldest son and heir, this Member, with acute financial problems. Claimed by the Crown as concealed land, the hospital apparently cost young Lovelace £800 in fines, and involved him in litigation.18 Lovelace’s financial difficulties were exacerbated as he inherited his estates while under-age. His wardship was sold to the earl of Leicester for £173 6s.8d.19
     Ownership of the hospital was not Lovelace’s only legal difficulty. In 1586 Canterbury’s corporation disputed his title to his town house, the Greyfriars. However, the corporation’s case was weak, since it had promised this property and the surrounding land to serjeant Lovelace some years earlier in return for a favour.20 In 1589 it capitulated, and also granted him a messuage in All Saints’ parish, the rent from a second property and the right to build a bridge over the Stour, an important concession as the Greyfriars and its ornamental garden was entirely surrounded by water. In return Lovelace granted the corporation a shop and garden in the city’s High Street. 21 Lovelace also succeeded in his dealings with the dean and chapter of Canterbury who, in 1587, agreed to write off the arrears on his late father’s account as steward of the archbishop’s liberties in return for £50. However, it is not known whether he triumphed in his dispute with the chapter over the right to collect the tithes of St. Paul’s parish, which appears to have been submitted to arbitration.22
     Lovelace served in Ireland during the 1590s, receiving his knighthood from the 2nd earl of Essex after the fight at Offaly in 1599. His association with Essex has been offered to explain his temporary removal from Kent’s commission of the peace in July 1595.23 He attended the county’s parliamentary election in September 1601, but apparently remained neutral.24 By 1602 he was serving in an unknown capacity with the English forces in the United Provinces. In the following November he and his son, Capt. William Lovelace, were captured in a supply boat off the Dutch coast. Lovelace was held prisoner while his son was released to raise a ransom of 2,000 gulden (about £180), and an additional sum for the 14 soldiers captured with him.25 Helped by friends, Capt. Lovelace put together a ship’s cargo of beer and other goods to sell in Dunkirk, but though despite procuring a royal passport, the vessel was seized by a Dutch warship and its contents sold as prize. Lovelace’s release in early 1604 was only secured following the intervention of the king, the Privy Council and the lord admiral, who persuaded the States-General to order the receipts of the sale to be paid to Capt. Lovelace.26 On his return to England, Lovelace was granted permission to take extended leave ‘at His Majesty’s instance’.27
     Lovelace was licensed to undertake further military service abroad in November 1604.28 He returned to Holland, but again ran into difficulty. Writing to Sir Thomas Edmondes* in August 1605, the English ambassador at The Hague, Sir Ralph Winwood*, noted that ‘I have been pressed again and again to trouble your Lordship with these papers of Sir W. Lovelace’. The matter was apparently not serious, however, as Winwood concluded that Lovelace ‘is much more afraid than I think there is cause’.29 A more pressing problem arose in 1606, when Lovelace’s son stabbed to death an English prostitute in Flushing and was nearly lynched by an angry mob.30 Through strenuous lobbying of the States-General and the governor of the English forces in the cautionary towns, Lord L’Isle (Robert Sidney†), Lovelace obtained a pardon for his son.31
     A Sir William Lovelace captained a company of foot in the English army that invaded Jülich-Cleves in 1610. However, this was probably Lovelace’s son, who was knighted in 1609, as a residence certificate indicates that Lovelace himself was present in Canterbury in the summer of 1610.32 Lovelace, now nearly 50 years old, appears to have withdrawn from active military life, although he subsequently served as a deputy-lieutenant and captain of Canterbury’s Trained Band. His retirement was plagued with financial difficulties. In 1611 he negotiated a marriage alliance between his son and the daughter of Sir William Barnes† of Woolwich. In return for a dowry of £1,500, Lovelace pledged to convey most of his land in Bethersden to his son, and to raise money for the purchase of additional property by selling all his woodland. However, he was so indebted that he pocketed the £1,700 raised from the sale of his woods, and though he conveyed several properties to his son these were heavily encumbered. In view of such inadequate provision for his daughter and son-in-law, and realizing that they would inherit massive debts, Barnes took Lovelace to court. In order to try to settle matters, in 1616 Lovelace relinquished possession of the Greyfriars to his principal creditor, his son-in-law, the London Mercer Sir John Collymore, but this did not satisfy Barnes, who learned that Collymore still intended to extend Lovelace’s lands when Lovelace died.33 The affair probably drove a wedge between father and son because in his will of 1622 the younger Lovelace failed to mention his father.34
     The prospect of obtaining protection from his creditors may explain why Lovelace sought election to Parliament in 1614. It was clearly he who was returned and not his son, for in 1620 the diarist Thomas Scott* recorded that the Lovelace who had sat in the Commons in 1614 had been ‘a free dweller [of Canterbury] ... and our captain [of militia]’.35 Lovelace played no recorded part in the Parliament, except to be appointed to the committee for the bill to settle the debts of the late Sir Robert Wroth II* (25 May), in which he is not known to have had an interest.36 Lovelace again sought election to Parliament for Canterbury in 1620, when he apparently spent some time in the Fleet,37 and also in 1624, but on neither occasion did he prove successful. During the 1624 election campaign, a Canterbury yeoman named Simon Penny told other voters that Lovelace was unsuitable because he ‘did cross himself before the French or Spanish ambassador’, and that ‘many of the city had popes in their bellies and he did not know, but the captain [Lovelace] might have one in his belly’. Lovelace was so incensed that he reported this slander to the mayor, whose investigations revealed that Lovelace’s reputation as ‘a dangerous man’ in religion had been encouraged by Sir Edwin Sandys*, who supported the zealous Protestant Thomas Scott, on whose behalf Penny had been canvassing.38
     Lovelace has been described as a ‘local landowner’ at the time of the 1624 elections, but by then his estate had perhaps been reduced to his house and 30 acres in Bethersden.39 He may have recovered possession of the Greyfriars after the death of Sir John Collymore in 1620, as a certificate of 1628 records that the house was then his residence, while his will of 6 Oct. 1629 refers to ‘my chamber in the Greyfriars’.40 However, Collymore’s widow Mabel may simply have permitted Lovelace, her father, to live with her in the house. In July 1627 Lovelace was listed as a Forced Loan defaulter.41 By 1628 he was in such penury that he was unable to pay Sir Nicholas Tufton* rent arrears of just over 50s. for lands in Bethersden Park.42 He was also forced to borrow £10 from the dean of Canterbury Cathedral, a further £10 from the earl of Cork (in order to repay the dean), and £6 from one mistress Hawkins on the security of some of his household goods, including ‘my crimson bed’.43
     Six days after drawing up his will, Lovelace was buried, according to his wishes, in the south chapel in St. Margaret’s, Bethersden. His executor was his daughter-in-law, his son Sir William having been killed at the siege of Groll two years earlier. Among the goods she inherited were portraits of Lovelace and her husband, both of which now hang in the Dulwich Picture Gallery. Lovelace’s bequests were few, his grandson, James Collymore, being offered merely ‘my best beaver hat, all my books, my purple cloth cloak, my hose and doublet belonging thereunto, if he will accept thereof’, and two portraits of his parents.44 None of Lovelace’s immediate descendants sat in Parliament, though a member of the family’s junior branch represented Canterbury after the Restoration.

Biography
     Lovelaces were living at Bethersden as early as the fourteenth century, and Lovelace used the proceeds of his legal career to buy more land in his county. At his death he held the manor of Lydden Court near Sandwich as well as property in Bethersden, Chartham, Smarden and Newnham. In Canterbury he possessed the house and site of the Grey Friars and a large house in the parish of St. Alphage. He also bought the hospital of St. Lawrence outside the city, part of which was claimed by the Crown as concealed land.
     His parents died when he was very young, and his father’s will did not allow him to inherit the family property until he was 26. By that time he was probably already a barrister and practicing lawyer. He may have been the ‘Mr. Lovelles’ who in November 1554 attended Lord Cobham at Rochester when Cardinal Pole returned to England, but apart from his appointment as legal counsel to the Cinque Ports in 1557, no references have been found to him before Elizabeth’s reign.
     In 1559 he was appointed to the ecclesiastical commission which visited the south-western dioceses, covering, according to Bishop Jewel, about 700 miles. During the next few years he was active mainly in Kent. He wrote the detailed reports for the commissioners who in the autumn of 1561 decided that £2,000 was needed to repair Rochester bridge, and was one of the first to pay his assessment of £5 towards the project. At Canterbury and Faversham he seems to have been a popular adviser: in 1564 or 1565 the Faversham corporation gave him a dinner ‘for his aid given by his counsel unto the town’, and in addition to his annual fee of £2 he received presents of sugar and wine. Canterbury, although here the borough authorities had more great men to ‘gratify’, sent him porpoises and other gifts of food at various times. The corporation’s subscription to the Act of Uniformity in 1569 stated that they were acting ‘by the advice of their counsel, Serjeant Lovelace’.4
     The Cinque Ports during Elizabeth’s reign provided their lawyers with plenty of work. Letters from Lovelace survive about a number of their disputes and claims to ancient privileges. In February 1571, he, Roger Manwood and John Jeffrey gave their opinion that the Cinque Ports’ charters exempted the inhabitants from the payment of loans by privy seal; four years later he exerted himself to get favourable terms for the Ports in a quarrel with the city of London; and, probably about the same time, he joined the lieutenant of Dover castle and other commissioners in examining new ordinances drawn up by the borough of Rye. In all these matters he acted in conjunction with the lord warden, Lord Cobham, but when in 1573 differences developed between Cobham and the Ports, Lovelace wrote a tactful letter advising the town authorities to submit—describing himself ‘as one that for your yearly fee [originally 20s. but recently increased to 40s.] ought to respect your doings’; he suggested that a guestling or assembly should be called to discuss the matter. Seeing that it would be impossible to further their suits in the courts unless Cobham gave his support, Lovelace hoped that his clients would take his writing in good part.
     After serving for some time as justice of assize, mainly in the south and west of England, it is clear that in 1572 Lovelace expected early promotion to the bench. For some reason this was not forthcoming. In fact his career was prejudiced by his unsuccessful rivalry with Manwood, who took a leading part in the attacks on his title to St. Lawrence’s hospital, and after Lovelace’s death continued the case against his son, making a personal profit of £600 from the final award. Still, as the two leading Kent lawyers of the day they co-operated on a number of important commissions and at Archbishop Parker’s funeral in June 1575 they walked together as mourners.5
     Lovelace was an active Member of Parliament. In 1566 he was appointed to two committees to consider a proviso to the bill concerning bishops (7 Nov.) and the Lords’ amendments to the bill concerning informers (19 Dec.) While speaking in the subsidy debate on 7 Apr. 1571, arguing ‘that every loyal subject ought to yield to the relief of the prince and that without any condition or limitation’, Lovelace took the opportunity to propose three reforms:
     First, the abuse of purveyors, wherein he had to desire the Council and the masters of the Household to consider of it ... and in his opinion it should not be amiss to take away the purveyors, and to limit every county to a proportionable rate, so should her Majesty be better served, and the commons eased.
His other two proposals referred to the reform of the Exchequer. He was appointed to the subsidy committee on 7 Apr. A week later, when the House was debating Carleton’s bill about religion, Lovelace intervened to point out that judges were unable to deal successfully with cases involving clerical dispensations and licences for non-residence, since
     by the ancient laws of the realm and by order the certificate of the bishop is to be expected, who whether he will certify against himself or his own doings, it is not to be doubted that he will not. And so the whole travail in making of the law is nothing.
On 19 Apr. 1571 the bill against usury was before the House. Lovelace condemned usury and covetousness as ‘these great evils to the which man of his nature is born and made prone and too apt’, but disliked the general nature of the bill and the severity of the proposed penalties.
     Withal, he added, that to prohibit the ill of covetousness in generality were vain, void and frivolous, since that the speech and the act itself is indefinite, comprehending all kind of our actions and doings ... When we may not reach to the best, farthest and uttermost, we must do as we may say, by degrees, as to say there shall be no sleight or deceit in making of this kind or that kind of wares, that the husbandman shall till his arable land, he shall not keep above such a number of sheep, that there shall be no forestalling, regrating, etc. and this in particularity ... whereupon he concluded that there should be degrees in the punishment of usury, as he that should take so much to lose or be punished thus, he that should take more more deeply.
His committee work in 1571 included topics such as returns (6 Apr.), fraudulent conveyances (11 Apr.), the order of business (21, 26 Apr.), vagabonds (23 Apr.) and respite of homage (27 Apr., 2, 17 May).
     On 20 May 1572 Lovelace spoke on the bill against vagabonds and was appointed to the committee on 22 May:
     "Of all people vagabonds the worst. Impiety to give them any thing. They have such devices to deceive men, and their clamours be so great, as it moveth many to pity them, and yet most of them none other but thieves.
He extolled the example of Worcestershire, where no vagabond had been brought before the j.p.s at the last assizes although the county was well populated:
     This there brought about especially by the appointing one special person to search for them. He goeth to all fairs and markets, where if he find any he carrieth them to the justices at his own costs and charges; he seeth that they receive ... punishment; and at his like costs and charges seeth them placed according to the statute, and findeth means that they be from time to time set on work sometimes by one and sometimes by another. And for the same hath a competent living allowed him in the shire. And so concludeth that he wisheth the like provision to be made in this statute.
On 3 June 1572 Lovelace spoke in support of the bill against fraudulent conveyances, moved to speak, he said, by ‘the number of clients which come to him, being greatly endangered and almost undone hereby’. He was appointed to the committee the same day. On 28 May he was named to committees concerning recoveries, and Mary Queen of Scots. In a discussion about a certain clause in the bill against the Queen of Scots (7 June), he reminded the House that the words of the clause were ‘only to be considered according to the lawyers’ phrase and not to any logical sense’.
     During the 1576 session Lovelace focused all his attention on committee work, and no speeches have been found in his name. His committees included the following topics, mostly of a legal nature: the subsidy (10 Feb.), fines and recoveries (13 Feb., 7 Mar.), bastardy (15 Feb.), jeofails (15 Feb.), privilege cases (16, 28 Feb.), sheriffs (18 Feb.), the butlerage and prizage of wines (21 Feb.), the county palatine of Chester (25 Feb.), the confirmation of letters patent (25 Feb.), William Isley’s debts (27 Feb.), trials by juries (28 Feb.), cloth and clothiers (1, 9 Mar.), the inning of salt marshes (6 Mar.), benefit of clergy (7 Mar.), collateral warranties (7 Mar.), fraudulent conveyances (8 Mar.) and the justices of the Queen’s forests (8 Mar.)6
     He was on circuit in the summer of 1576, and in good health in the July of that year. He died in London 23 Mar. 1577, evidently not from natural causes, as in May Henry Binneman bought a licence to print The Brief Course of the Accidents of the Death of Mr. Serjeant Lovelace, no copy of which has been found. The will, which left £200 to each of his two daughters and a £60 annuity to the widow, divided Lovelace’s non-entailed lands between his two sons William and Thomas, both of whom were under age. In addition to generous legacies to servants, £6 13s. 4d. was to be distributed to the poor of Canterbury at his burial. Two local ‘hospitals’ or almshouses also benefited. A codicil set up a special trust to settle heavy debts, probably arising from the purchase of the St. Lawrence property. Lovelace was buried, as he asked, in the nave of Canterbury cathedral: his effigy there, showing him in lawyer’s robes, remained until the beginning of this century.7

     "He was admitted a pensioner of St. John's College, Cambridge, on 21 April 1553, but, owing to the religious changes consequent on the accession of Mary I, he left the university without a degree soon after his admission.
     "Accompanying his father in his exile, he returned to England soon after the accession of Elizabeth I. He afterwards entered public life, and the rest of his career was devoted to politics and the administration of a larg estate.
     "He was elected for the first time to parliament for St. Albans on 11 January 1563; he was returned for Travena on 2 April 1571; he took his seat as member for the important constituency of Middlesex on 8 May 1572, and was re-elected to four later parliaments.
     "His father's death on 9 October 1573 placed him in possession of large estates in Middlesex, Hertfordshire, Essex, and Somerset; but he lived chiefly at Loughton Hall, Essex, which he had acquired through his wife, and devoted much time to the affairs of the county of Essex.

From Wikipedia:
Sir Robert Wroth (c. 1540 – 27 January 1606) was an English politician.
Life
     "Robert, born in Middlesex about 1540, was eldest son of Sir Thomas Wroth (died 1573) by his wife Mary, daughter of Richard, Lord Rich. He was admitted a pensioner of St. John's College, Cambridge, on 21 April 1553, but, owing to the religious changes consequent on the accession of Mary I, he left the university without a degree soon after his admission.[1] Accompanying his father in his exile, he returned to England soon after the accession of Elizabeth I. He afterwards entered public life, and the rest of his career was devoted to politics and the administration of a large estate.
     "He was elected for the first time to parliament for St Albans on 11 January 1563; he was returned for Bossiney on 2 April 1571; he took his seat as member for the important constituency of Middlesex on 8 May 1572, and was re-elected to seven later parliaments (1584, 1586, 1589, 1593, 1597, 1601, and 1604).
     "Meanwhile, his father's death on 9 October 1573 had placed him in possession of large estates in Middlesex, Hertfordshire, Essex, and Somerset; but he lived chiefly at Loughton Hall, Essex, which he acquired through his wife, and devoted much time to the affairs of the county of Essex. He was High Sheriff of Essex in 1587. He was appointed to the command of two hundred untrained men, forty harquebusiers, and forty musketeers of Essex in the army which was raised in 1588 to resist the Spanish Armada. He was knighted in 1597. During the closing years of Queen Elizabeth's reign he, as a staunch protestant and loyal supporter of the queen's government, was nominated to serve on many special commissions for the trial of persons charged with high treason, including Dr. William Parry (20 February 1584–5), Anthony Babington (5 September 1586), Patrick O'Cullen (21 February 1593), many Jesuits and suspected coiners (26 March 1593), and Valentine Thomas (22 July 1598).
     "Wroth retained the favour of the government under James I. On 22 May 1603 the new king granted him a walkership in Waltham Forest for life, and on 19 February next year he and others were directed to see to the erection of bridges across the river Lea between Hackney and Hoddesdon for the king's convenience when hawking. On 18 and 19 July 1605 he entertained James I at his residence at Loughton in Essex for two days. His estates in Essex were increased by the death of Francis Stonard, his father-in-law, on 13 September 1604. He was a juryman at the trial of Sir Walter Ralegh on 15 September 1603, when through some misunderstanding he incurred the displeasure of the attorney-general.[2] He was in the special commission of oyer and terminer for Middlesex issued 16 January 1606 for the trial of Guy Fawkes and the Gunpowder Plot conspirators.
     "Wroth died on 27 January 1606, and was buried on the following day at Enfield. His obsequies were formally celebrated on 3 March.
Family
     "Sir Robert married Susan, daughter and heiress of John Stonard of Loughton, through whom he acquired the estate of Loughton. He seems to have had at least four surviving sons:
     "Sir Robert (1576?–1614) who married Lady Mary Wroth.
     "John, who was admitted a student of the Inner Temple, 1596, was afterwards described as a captain, and succeeded to Durrants (also spelt Durants), the family's estate at Enfield in Middlesex,[3]
Thomas.
     "Henry, who is styled "of Woodbury in Herefordshire".[4]
     "Sir Henry Wroth (died 1671), second son of Henry, Sir Robert's youngest son, acquired some fame as a royalist during the civil wars.

     "Kenneth is said to have married Mary, widow of John of Strathbogie, earl of Atholl, who was hanged in London on 7 November 1306, and daughter of Donald, 6th earl of Mar, and his wife Helen.
     "He was one of the leaders, with Hugh, 4th earl of Ross, of the Highlanders in the fourth line at the Battle of Halidon Hill, near Berwick, 19 July 1333, and was killed with him as well as Sir Archibald Douglas, regent of Scotland, and the earls of Atholl, Lennox and Carrick."¹
