Sir William Brownlow, 1st Baronet

Sir William Brownlow, 1st Baronet (c. 1595–1666)[1] of Humby in Lincolnshire, was an English politician and barrister.

He was the second son of Richard Brownlow (1553–1638) of Belton in Lincolnshire, which manor he purchased, Chief Prothonotary of the Court of Common Pleas, by his wife Katharine Page, a daughter of John Page[2] of Wembley in Middlesex.

He was educated at St Mary Hall, Oxford, where he graduated with a Bachelor of Arts in 1610 or 1611.

[citation needed] Despite having been created by King Charles I a baronet, "of Humby, in the County of Lincoln", on 27 June 1641,[3] one day after the baronetcy of his elder brother, he became a Parliamentarian during the Civil War.
