 By this time he would have already married Mary Mansel (possibly in the 1630s), and his children probably would have been born – his two sons having “died young”.Much of this is supposition, as thus far few records for this period of his life have come to light.What is certain is that he held the position of Sheriff of Glamorgan in 1638 and was appointed a Justice of the Peace in 1640, a post he held throughout the Civil War until his death in 1655.
