@17thCenturyLady Proper modern biography of Sir Kenelm Digby long overdue - son of Gunpowder Plotter, courtier to Charles I, ambassador for Cromwell, privateer, gourmet, alchemist, romantic, baldy, scientist, theologian, astrologer and inventor of the modern wine bottle… #StuartsSaturday

Under the Lord Protectors, 3 Protectorate Parliaments were called - two by Oliver Cromwell (1654-5 & 1656-8) and one by his son Richard (1659). In May 1659 Richard was forced to renounce his position by the army and members of the 'Rump Parliament' were restored. 8/10

We're privileged to have the best extant collection of portraits of the women in Oliver Cromwell's life. He and his wife Elizabeth (1598-1655) were married in 1620 and had a devoted relationship judging by their surviving letters. #17thCentury #InternationalWomensDay Thread 1/6

#OnThisDay 7 March 1657 At a meeting with senior army officers, Oliver Cromwell made it clear that he was going to abandon the system of the Major-Generals, an experiment in regional government that was deeply unpopular and unsuccessful. #17thCentury #OTD

#OnThisDay 24 February 1655 a proclamation was issued banning horse racing for 6 months. The ban was introduced as it was feared Royalist agents were using races as a cover to meet, but was only temporary as Oliver Cromwell was rather fond of horse racing! #17thCentury #OTD

#OnThisDay 19 February 1643 Parliamentarian forces took control of the county town of #Lancaster. #EnglishCivilWar #17thCentury #OTD

@17thCenturyLady @JaneDismore @ARebelHand @MargaretPorter @jdmccafferty @cheapsellotape @swiftstory @SueCooperBridge @maggs912 A devoted and loving relationship was that of Oliver and Elizabeth Cromwell, married in 1620 and resulting in 9 children. The couple's few surviving letters are very tender, part of a close-knit family... #StuartsSaturday #KeepItStuart #17thCentury Portaits in our collection 1/2

#OnThisDay 7 January 1645 the House of Lords raised objections to the disqualification of peers for military command under the Self-Denying Ordinance. Given it was designed to remove those of them who had not been 100% competent, that was not coincidental...😉 #17thCentury #OTD
