John Awdeley

John Audley II (also variously Awdeley and Awdley;[1] died c. 1594) was an English member of parliament and Londoner originally from Lincolnshire.

When Audley's father died, he left his son £100 (equivalent to £42,174 in 2023), with which Audley followed older brothers to London and bought a house in Chancery Lane, and leased another at Borehamwood.

He married Susan, the sister of John Stockwood and widow of "Thomas Field of London".

[2] A Member of the Parliament of England, Audley represented the Lancaster and Stockbridge constituencies at the 8th Parliament of Queen Elizabeth I in 1593 (alongside John Preston and Henry St John respectively).

Hasler wrote for The History of Parliament that Audley's election to two separate boroughs in the Duchy of Lancaster was surprising, and possibly an error on the part of Gilbert Gerard.
