APPENDIX D.
A list of the Agitators elected in 1647.
[The following list is based on a loose paper amongst the Clarke MSS. The paper has unfortunately suffered greatly from damp, and is in some parts very difficult to read. I have supplemented it from the list of names appended to the printed declarations of the agitators, and added where possible the Christian names of the persons mentioned. These additions are marked by brackets. This paper is headed: “A list of the Names of the [two] Commission Officers and two Soldiers of every regiment in the army intrusted for the several regiments according to the Engagement of the Army.” It is dated October, 1647. Of the Foot Regiments. | The two Officers. | The two Soldiers. | | Skippon’s regiment was quartered at Newcastle, and seems to have been represented solely by Major John Cobbet, v., p. 407. | | Should be Stephen Shipman. | | See pp. 32, 173, 180, 187, 280, 330, 339. In 1859 John Clarke was Colonel of a foot regiment in Ireland. | | “Blewin” should perhaps be “Blethen,” as the name stands in another list. | | Captain, afterwards Major Holmes, was implicated in the Rye House plot, and executed in 1685 for his share in Monmouth’s rising. | | Cousin of Richard Deane, the admiral. | | Edmund Garner appears as a Lieutenant in Hewson’s regiment in November, 1647. | | Lieutenant-Colonel Brayfield was cashiered by Henry Cromwell in Ireland in 1657 for sedition. Thurloe, vi., 505, 527, 549, 552, 563, 599; Ludlow, Memoirs, ed. 1751, p. 198. | | This was originally Colonel Fortescue’s regiment; the greater part of it had volunteered for Ireland, hence, probably, its imperfect representation. | | Lieutenant-Colonel Lagoe was appointed Adjutant-General of the Irish Army in 1659. | | Lieutenant-Colonel John Mason presented the protest of the officers against kingship in 1657, (Ludlow, p. 224). Governor of Jersey in 1659. Cal. State Papers, Dom. 1658-9, p. 375. | | Prentice became an ensign in this regiment in November, 1647. | | Nicholas Cowley, or Cowling, see the book of Army Declarations, p. 71. Cowling is officially described as “Commissary-General of Victuals,” and Robinson as “Commissary of the Draught-Horse. Peacock, Army Lists, pp. 101, 106. | | The principal instigator of the mutiny of Ingoldsby’s regiment at Oxford in September, 1649. See The Moderate, September 11-18, 1649; and a paper in Proceedings of the Oxford Architectural and Historical Society, 1884. | | Of the Generall’s regiment. | Major [Francis] White. | [Edmund] Vaughan. | | Capt. Lewis Audley. | — Wilkinson. | | Major Generall’s regiment. | | | | Col. Rainborowe. | Capt. Flower. | Joseph Adams. | | Lieut Shipley. | Robert Gladman. | | Sir H. Waller. | Capt.

[Edmund] Rolfe. | Nath. Foxgill. | | Capt. Wheeler. | Morgan Clarke. | | Col. Lilburne. | Capt. [Abraham] Holmes. | Jacob Somers. | | Capt. [Richard] Deane. | Robert Linsey. | | Col. Hughson. | Capt. [John] Carter. | Edmund Garne. | | Capt. [Alexander] Brayfield. | Richard Nixon. | | Col. Barkstead. | Capt. Young. | | | Col. Pride. | Capt. [Waldine] Lagoe. | Nic. Andrewes? | | Capt [John] Mason. | Ralph Prentice. | | Col. Overton. | Capt. [William] Knolles. | Rich. Flower. | | Capt. [Edward] Orpin. | Stephen Combe. | | The Traine. | Commissary Cowling. | | | [Commissary Thomas] Robinson. | Tho. Mills. | | Col. Ingoldesby. | Capt. [Francis] Allen. | Rich. Johnson | | Lt [Consolation] Fox. | John Radman. | Regiments of Horse. | The two Officers. | The two Soldiers. | | Horton died in Ireland, in October, 1649. “He was a person of great integrity and courage,” writes Cromwell, Letter cxii. On his services in 1648, see Phillips Civil War in Wales. | | Sometimes spelt Gethings. He was sentenced to death in February, 1648, for causing a mutiny in this regiment, but the sentence appears to have been remitted. | | Recommended as Colonel of a regiment of horse in Ireland. Cal. State Papers, Dom., 1659-60, p. 13. | | Recommended as Colonel of the regiment late Henry Cromwell’s in 1659. Cal. State Papers, Dom., 1659-60, p. 13. | | In letter clxii. in Carlyle’s Cromwell, Oliver rebukes Colonel Hacker for styling Empson a better preacher than fighter. “He is a good man and a good officer,” says Cromwell, “I would we had no worse.” Earlier in the campaign in Scotland Empson had distinguished himself by rescuing Lambert when the latter was taken prisoner. Ibid., letter cxxxv. | | On Colonel Francis Thornhaugh, see the Life of Colonel Hutchinson. Thornhaugh was killed at Preston in 1648. This was a Nottingham regiment, and not one of the new-model regiments. Rushworth, vi., 623. | | See Cal. State Papers, Dom., 1659-60, pp. 299, 591. | | Late Colonel Rossiter’s regiment, Lords’ Journals, ix., 217. | | Bridge was knighted at the Restoration, having adhered to Monck and taken part in the seizure of Dublin Castle (Ludlow, Memoirs, ed. 1751, pp. 298, 307). He had succeeded to the command of Okey’s regiment in January, 1655, when Okey was cashiered. | | On Merriman, see Rushworth, vii., 1051, 1361. | | Probably the Captain Rawlins recommended in Cromwell’s letter of 4 June, 1645. See Cal. State Papers, Dom., 1659-60, 12, 183, 189, 189, 198; also 1644-5, p. 53. | | Matthew Thomlinson, knighted by Henry Cromwell, sat as one of the king’s judges, but did not not sign the warrant, escaped at the restoration. See his petition 7th Report of Hist. MSS. Comm., p. 123. | | A life of Scroope is in Noble’s Lives of the Regicides, 1798. He was executed October 17, 1660. | | The Generall’s Regiment. | Lt.
