    Notes:

    He was an English general and statesman who, first as a subordinate an d l ater as Commander-in-Chief, led armies of the Parliament of England a gain st King Charles I during the English Civil War, subsequently rulin g the B ritish Isles as Lord Protector from 1653 until his death in 1658 . He acte d simultaneously as head of state and head of government of th e new repub lican commonwealth.

    Cromwell was born into the landed gentry to a family descended from th e s ister of Henry VIII's minister Thomas Cromwell (his great-great-grand uncl e). Little is known of the first 40 years of his life, as only fou r of hi s personal letters survive, along with a summary of a speech tha t he deli vered in 1628. He became an Independent Puritan after undergoin g a religi ous conversion in the 1630s, taking a generally tolerant vie w towards th e many Protestant sects of the time; an intensely religiou s man, Cromwel l fervently believed in God guiding him to victory. Cromwe ll was electe d Member of Parliament for Huntingdon in 1628, and for Camb ridge in the S hort (1640) and Long (1640–1649) Parliaments. He entered t he English Civi l Wars on the side of the "Roundheads", or Parliamentaria ns, and gained t he nickname "Old Ironsides". Cromwell demonstrated his a bility as a comma nder and was quickly promoted from leading a single cav alry troop to bein g one of the principal commanders of the New Model Arm y, playing an impor tant role under General Sir Thomas Fairfax in the def eat of the Royalis t ("Cavalier") forces.

    Cromwell was one of the signatories of Charles I's death warrant in 164 9 , and dominated the short-lived Commonwealth of England as a member o f th e Rump Parliament (1649–1653). He was selected to take command of th e Eng lish campaign in Ireland in 1649–1650. Cromwell's forces defeated t he Con federate and Royalist coalition in Ireland and occupied the countr y, endi ng the Irish Confederate Wars. During this period, a series of Pe nal Law s were passed against Roman Catholics (a significant minority i n Englan d and Scotland but the vast majority in Ireland), and a substant ial amoun t of their land was confiscated. Cromwell also led a campaign a gainst th e Scottish army between 1650 and 1651. On 20 April 1653, he dis missed th e Rump Parliament by force, setting up a short-lived nominate d assembly k nown as Barebone's Parliament, before being invited by his f ellow leader s to rule as Lord Protector of England (which included Wale s at the time) , Scotland, and Ireland from 16 December 1653.[4] As a rul er, Cromwell ex ecuted an aggressive and effective foreign policy. Nevert heless, his poli cy of religious toleration for Protestant denomination s during the Protec torate extended only to "God's peculiar", and not t o those he considere d heretics, such as Quakers, Socinians, and Ranters.

    Cromwell died of natural causes in 1658 and was buried in Westminster Ab b ey. He was succeeded by his son Richard, whose weakness led to a powe r va cuum. Oliver's former General George Monck then mounted a coup, caus ing P arliament to arrange Prince Charles's return to London as King Char les I I and the Royalists' return to power in 1660. Cromwell's corpse wa s subse quently dug up, hung in chains, and beheaded.

    Cromwell is one of the most controversial figures in British and Irish h i story, considered a regicidal dictator by historians such as David Shar p , a military dictator by Winston Churchill, and a hero of liberty by Jo h n Milton, Thomas Carlyle, and Samuel Rawson Gardiner. His tolerance o f Pr otestant sects did not extend to Catholics, and some have characteri sed t he measures he took against them, particularly in Ireland, as genoc idal o r near-genocidal. His record is strongly criticised in Ireland,[9 ] althou gh the worst atrocities took place after he had returned to Engl and.[10 ] He was selected as one of the ten greatest Britons of all tim e in a 200 2 BBC poll.

    Oliver married Elizabeth Bourchier on 22 Aug 1620 in St. Giles-without-Cripplegate, London, Middlesex, England. Elizabeth (daughter of Sir James Bourchier and Frances Crane) was born in 1598 in London, Middlesex, England; died in Nov 1665 in Norborough, Northamptonshire, England. [Group Sheet] [Family Chart]
