Biography

Arms of Stourton: Sable, a bend or between six fountains

William Stourton, 11th Baron Stourton (c. 1594 – 25 April 1672) was the son of Edward Stourton and Frances Tresham. He married Frances Moore (d. 5 January 1662), daughter of Sir Edward More. William and Frances had five children;

  • William
  • Mary (d. 1650); married Sir John Weld
  • Frances; was a nun
  • Edward (1617 – January 1644); married and had issue
  • Thomas (d. 1684, in Paris); was a monk

His eldest son William died young and childless, and he was succeeded by his grandson William, son of Edward.

William was a royalist and a papist, and suffered heavily due to this. Stourhead, his home, was at one point garrisoned for the King and then, in September 1644, was ravaged by General Ludlow.
