Anthony Nicholl

Anthony Nicholl, 14 November 1611 to 20 February 1658, was an English politician from Cornwall. Prior to the outbreak of the Wars of the Three Kingdoms in 1639, he was closely associated with Parliamentarian leaders John Pym and John Hampden. A political moderate, following victory in the 1642 to 1646 First English Civil War, he was among the Eleven Members accused by senior Army officers in July 1647 of attempting to destabilise the kingdom.

Suspended in January 1648, he was restored, then expelled in Pride's Purge of December 1648. He returned to Parliament in 1654, and was appointed High Sheriff of Cornwall in 1656. He died in London on 20 February 1658. Provided by Wikipedia
