John Arundell (of Trerice, died 1580)
Sir John Arundell (died 15 September 1580), of Trerice in Cornwall, was an English landowner and Member of Parliament.
Sir John was the son of Sir John Arundell.[1] He was a retiring figure for much of his life and less celebrated than either his father, (nicknamed "Tilbury Jack") or his son Sir John Arundell (nicknamed "Jack for the King"), both also called Sir John Arundell of Trerice.
He was Member of Parliament for Mitchell in the Parliaments of 1555 and 1558, and High Sheriff of Cornwall in 1573-1574.
He married twice; firstly Catherine Coswarth and secondly Gertrude Denys, the daughter of Sir Robert Denys of Holcombe Burnell, and had at least eight children including John, Thomas and Juliana, who married the historian Richard Carew.[1][2]
