Thomas Prince (Leveller)

He settled in the parish of St Martin Orgar where, although an Independent, he stayed within the Anglican church.

[1] Prince supported the Parliamentary cause in the English Civil War and served in the Blue regiment of London's trained bands until invalided out after being badly wounded in 1643 at the First Battle of Newbury.

[1] Prince was released along with the other leading Leveller prisoners after Lilburne was found not guilty of high treason at his trial in October 1649.

Prince continued to live in London until at least 1657 and was mentioned by Lilburne as one who would provide security for him if he were allowed to return from exile.

[1] Prince married Elizabeth; they had two children who were baptised in the parish of St Martin Orgar.
