Sir William Hervey (1586 – 30 September 1660) was an English politician who sat in the House of Commons at various times between 1624 and 1629.
He was knighted at Whitehall on 29 April 1608, as of St Martins.
In 1628 he was elected MP for Bury St Edmunds and sat until 1629 when King Charles I decided to rule without parliament for eleven years.
They had two sons, John and Thomas,[3] and several daughters, including Mary, who married Sir Edward Gage, 1st Baronet.
After Susan's death, Hervey married Gage's twice-widowed mother Penelope Darcy, daughter of Thomas Darcy, 1st Earl Rivers and Mary Kitson; she was a noted recusant.
