Oliver Cromwell , then a youth of eighteen, having been born in the parish of St. John, Huntingdon , on the 25 Apr 1599 . The education of this eminent man was at first entrusted to the Rev. Mr. Long , of his native town, but he was afterwards placed under the care of Doctor Beard , master of the free grammar school in the same place, whence he removed to Cambridge , and entered Sydney Sussex College, as a fellow commoner, 23 Apr 1616 . Subsequently he is stated to have become a member of Lincoln's Inn, and to have given himself up to "a habit of gaming, the juice of the grape, and the charms of the fair." His career of intemperance was not however of long duration, for we find him before he had quite attained majority "returning to Huntington , harkening to the advice of his mother, attending divine service regularly in his parish church, renouncing his former vicious companions, and with them his extravagancies."

Marriage and family
On 22 August 1620 at St Giles-without-Cripplegate, Fore Street, London, Cromwell married Elizabeth Bourchier (1598-1665). Elizabeth's father, Sir James Bourchier, was a London leather merchant who owned extensive lands in Essex and had strong connections with Puritan gentry families there. The marriage brought Cromwell into contact with Oliver St John and with leading members of the London merchant community, and behind them the influence of the Earls of Warwick and Holland. A place in this influential network would prove crucial to Cromwell’s military and political career. The couple had nine children:

Robert (1621-1639), died while away at school.
Oliver (1622-1644), died of typhoid fever while serving as a Parliamentarian officer.
Bridget (1624-1662), married (1) Henry Ireton, (2) Charles Fleetwood.
Richard (1626-1712), his father's successor as Lord Protector, married Dorothy Maijor.
Henry (1628-1674), later Lord Deputy of Ireland, married Elizabeth Russell (daughter of Sir Francis Russell).
Elizabeth (1629-1658), married John Claypole.
James (b. & d. 1632), died in infancy.
Mary (1637-1713), married Thomas Belasyse, 1st Earl Fauconberg
Frances (1638-1720), married (1) Robert Rich (1634-1658), son of Robert Rich, 3rd Earl of Warwick, (2) Sir John Russell, 3rd Baronet
