Sir Ralph Bulmer (died 1558) of Wilton in Yorkshire (present day Redcar and Cleveland), was an English knight and soldier active on the Scottish border and during the war of the Rough Wooing.
Ralph's uncle, Sir John Bulmer, and his family were attainted of treason for their part in the Pilgrimage of Grace in June 1537.
On his arrival, Lord Hertford was not pleased with the instructions Bulmer had brought him from the Duke of Norfolk to destroy the town of Jedburgh as he was ill-equipped for the task.
[3] Ralph was credited with his colleague Ralph Eure and the garrisons of Berwick upon Tweed and Teviotdale with burning during November 1542; Coldingham; Reston; Ayton with 5 other places; Crochanshaws; Primeside with 6 other places; Coldstream town and Abbey; Scaythmure and other farmsteads belonging to it (which included Swinton and Swithmore).
[4] After the battle of Pinkie in September 1547, Ralph was made commander of an English fort in the occupied zone at Roxburgh.
