    THE Pennsylvania Magazine OF HISTORY AND BIOGRAPHY Governor John Blackwell: His Life in England and Ireland OHN BLACKWELL is best known to American readers as an early governor of Pennsylvania, the most recent account of his J governorship having been published in this Magazine in 1950. Little, however, has been written about his services to the Common- wealth government, first as one of Oliver Cromwell's trusted cavalry officers and, subsequently, as his Treasurer at War, a position of considerable importance and responsibility.1 John Blackwell was born in 1624,2 the eldest son of John Black- well, Sr., who exercised considerable influence on his son's upbringing and activities. John Blackwell, Sr., Grocer to King Charles I, was a wealthy London merchant who lived in the City and had a country house at Mortlake, on the outskirts of London.3 In 1640, when the 1 Nicholas B.

ByV I a y of Introduction WHILE I w as living in the home of that sturdy Puritan governor, William Leete, — my native town of Guil ford, — the idea suggested itself to me that inasmuch as a collection of the biographies of the chief executives of Connecticut had never been made, the work would afford an interesting and agreeable undertaking. This was in the year 1895. 1 began the task, but before it had far progressed it offered what seemed to me insurmountable obstacles, so that for a time the collection of data concerning the early rulers of the state was entirely abandoned. A few years later the work was again resumed and carried to completion. The manuscript was requested by a magazine editor for publication and appeared serially in " The Connecticut Magazine." To R ev. Samuel Hart, D.D., president of the Connecticut Historical Society, I express my gratitude for his assistance in deciding some matters which were subject to controversy.

The genealogical registers are very imperfect ; and if any fami- lies are omitted, it is because they were not put upon the public re- cords and because the ; compiler, after repeatedly advertising, and alter some months' delay, has failed to obtain them.

Winthrop makes no division into chapters. In this edition the text has, for the reader's convenience, been broken by headings repre- senting the years. These, however, in accordance with modern usage, have been set at the beginning of January, not at the date with which Winthrop began his year, the first of March.

Sanford, Jr. MILITARY BACKGROUND IN THE OLD WORLD In his book, ―John Winthrop: America‘s Forgotten Founding Father,‖ the author, Francis J. Bremer, asserts the following. ―Historians have agreed that ENDECOTT had some European military experience, and the nature of the (Pequot) campaign suggests that he may have fought in England‘s Irish Wars.‖ Henry VIII was declared King of Ireland in 1530 and the next sixty years was spent in repressing the residents of that land. This became more difficult during the Anglo-Spanish War (1585-1604) that was started by the English when they intruded into Spanish Netherlands that led to memorable sea battles which included the defeat of the Spanish Armada in 1588. During the war, the Spanish meddled in the affairs of Ireland and the English were in conflict with them until the signing of the treaty in 1604 that ended English actions in 1 the Spanish Netherlands and Spain‘s support for dissidents in Ireland.
