HOWARD, LORD WILLIAM (15631640)

This article appears in Volume V13, Page 834 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: HOR-I25
HOWARD, LORD WILLIAM (15631640) , known as " Belted or Bauld (bold) Will," 3rd son of Thomas Howard, 4th duke of Norfolk (executed in 1572), and of his second wife Margaret, daughter of Lord Audley, was born at Audley End in Essex on the 19th of December 1563. He married on the 28th of October 1577 Elizabeth, daughter of Thomas, Lord Dacre, and proceeded subsequently to the University of
Cambridge
 . Being suspected of treasonable intentions together with his elder brother, Philip,
earl
  of Arundel, he was imprisoned in 1583, 1585 and 1589. He joined the church of Rome in 1584, both brothers being dispossessed by the queen of a portion of their Dacre estates, which were, however, restored in 16oI for a payment of 1o,000. Howard then took up his residence with his children and grandchildren at Naworth Castle in Cumberland, restored the castle, improved the estate and established order in that part of the country. In 1603, on the accession of James, he had been restored in blood. In 1618 he was made one of the commissioners for the border, and performed great services in upholding the law and suppressing marauders. Lord William was a learned and accomplished scholar, praised by Camden, to whom he sent
inscriptions
  and drawings from relics collected by him from the Roman
wall
 , as " a singular lover of valuable antiquity and learned withal." He collected a valuable library, of which most of the printed works remain still at Naworth, though the MSS. have been dispersed, a portion being now in the Arundel MSS. in the Royal College of Arms; he corresponded with Ussher and was intimate with Camden, Spelman, and
Cotton
 , whose eldest son married his daughter. He published in 1592 an edition of Florence of Worcester's Chronicon ex Chronicis, dedicated to Lord Burghley, and drew up a genealogy of his family, now among the duke of Norfolk's MSS. at Norfolk
House
 . He died in October 164o at Greystock, to which place he had been removed when failing in health to escape the Scots who were threatening an advance on Naworth. He had a large family of children, of whom Philip, his
heir
 , was the grandfather of Charles, 1st
earl
  of Carlisle, and Francis was the ancestor of the Howards of Corby.
