Re Elizabeth Cromwell. As her daughter, Elizabeth's descendants included the Earls of Roden, who settled in Co. Louth, I assume that they didn't publicise THAT part of the family history!!! Kept very schtum. Sylvia
Interesting - and thanks! Have you come across Robert Harris's novel Act of Oblivion? A great story rooted in events from 1660, and partly set in Hartford.
This was a great read. Thank you so much for sharing!
Thank you!
This is a good read. I highly recommend Ronald Hutton's recent biographies on Cromwell, if y0u haven't read them yet.
Thank you. A historian friend has recommended them too – something else to add to the long reading list life generates!
Oliver Cromwell is my 3rd cousin through his daughter Elizabeth. A very fair & balanced essay.
Thank you – that's a great family connection! I really warmed to them both from exploring this.
