======================

Sir John was born at Haroldston, Pembrokeshire in 1530, allegedly the illegitimate son of Henry VIII by Mary Berkely, wife of Sir Thomas Perrot. Sir John remained a court favourite during the reigns of Henry VIII and Edward VI but spent much of Queen Mary's reign abroad. He was granted governorship of Carew Castle at the beginning of Queen Elizabeth's reign and embarked on the great rebuilding of the North front of the castle in the Elizabethan style. He was made Lord Deputy of Ireland in 1584 and a member of the Privy Council. However, he had many enemies and rumours of treason circulated. Haverfordwest merchants were angered by his allowing pirated contraband to land at his ports and caused an investigation by the Privy Council to take place in 1591. Sir John was taken to the Tower of London, tried and convicted of High Treason but it is said that Elizabeth was reluctant to sign his death warrant and he died a natural death there in 1592.

Captain Sir John Perrot, K.B. Born in 1527 to Sir Thomas Perrot & Lady Mary Berkley. Presumed to be a bastard son of Henry VIII.
Educated at St. Davids in Pembrokeshire, at age 18 was placed in the service of the Marquis of Winchester, William Paulet.
He possessed great physical strength, a violent disposition and a reputation for brawling. Because of this he owes a personal introduction to King Henry VIII, he was involved in a fracas with two yeoman of the guard. King Henry made him a Promise of Preferment, but King Henry died before he could fulfill it.
Made a Knight of the Bath in 1547 by Edward VI. Highly skilled in knightly exercises he secured a place with the Marquis of Northampton when he visited France in June 1551 to secure a marriage between Edward VI and Elizabeth the infant daughter of Henry II of France. Henry II was fascinated with Sir John and offered him considerable inducements to stay there, Sir John demurred and returned home.
He ran up very extravagent debts but because of the friendship between Sir John & Edward VI most were paid by the crown. Sir John stayed by the Kings side until the end of his reign. He entertained Edward VI with stories of his misspent youth and served as a man of the King's bedchamber.
When Mary arrived on the throne thing started to become dicey for Sir John. He was denounced by countrymen of his for housing heretics in his home in Wales. His uncle Robert, Edward VI's greek tutor, and Alexander Nowell, later made the Dean of Lichfield. Because of this he spent time in Fleet Prison. He was detained only for a short time and then was sent to serve under the Earl of Pembroke in France, and was present at the capture of St. Quentin in 1557. He returned to England only months before the death of Mary. Being staunchly Protestant he refused to assist the Earl of Pembroke in hunting down heretics.
When Elizabeth ascended the throne he was chosen as one of the four men to carry her canopy of state at here coronation. Soon afterwards he was made Vice-Admiral of the seas about the south of Wales, keeper of the gaol in Haverfordwest and because of Pembrokes influence was granted Carew Castle. He began extensively re-modeling the castle and it became one of the grand Tudor mansions of the day. While at his estates he probably sponsored piracy and fisheries off Newfoundland.
He was mayor of Haverfordwest in 1570. Following these appointments he was made a member of Parliament, a member of the Council of Marches and had become the most powerful person in his county. During this time he became involved in numerous lawsuits and because of his intense love of litigation made a number of enemies of his powerful neighbors. In 1571 he was sent to Ireland to be President of Munster and to restore order. And after 2 1/2 years of intensive action was able to do so. He returned to England without the Queens leave pleading ill health. Actually it was because of disatisfaction with the Queens decision to restore the Earl of Desmond, Essex's interference with his tenantry, and irritation at the Privy Council reprimanding him for conduct in the matter of a French merchant ship that he had detained.
He returned to England in July of 1573 and received a gracious welcome from Elizabeth. In spite her wishes for him to stay. He was shortly thereafter made a member of the Privy Council and again appointed mayor & gaoler of Haverfordwest. At the time of the faire he was being eyed for Comissioner of Piracy.
He was married to Lady Ann Cheney, no date given, they had a son Thomas, approx 1563. He also had an illicit affair with Elizabeth Hatton, Sir Christopher's illegitimate daughter, the product of the affair was the child Elizabeth.
A few character notes about John Perrot. Currently he is a widower of about 7-8 years. His son is in the Huntington household to be raised as a proper gentleman. Sir John is viewed as something of a troublemaker and somewhat mouthy but he was also well respected for his abilities both on and off the field of battle. He was a very able administrator when he put his mind to the task. He was on very friendly terms with Sir William Cecil, the Earl of Essex, the Sidney's, Henry & Phillip, and Sir Francis Walsingham. He was still on good terms the Earl of Pembroke and Archbishop Matthew Parker.

PERROT, SIR JOHN (c. 1527—1592), lord deputy of Ireland, was the son of Mary Berkley, who afterwards married Thomas Perrot, a Pembrokeshire gentleman. He was generally reputed to be a son of Henry VIII., and was attached to the household of William Paulet, 1st marquess of Winchester. He was in this way brought to the notice of Henry VIII., who died, however, before fulfilling his promises of advancement, but Pertot was knighted at the coronation of Edward VI. During Mary’s reign he suffered a short imprisonment on the charge of harbouring his uncle, Robert Perrot, and other heretics. In spite of his Protestantism he received the castle and lordship of Carew in Pembrokeshire, and at the beginning of Elizabeth’s reign he was entrusted with the naval defence of South Wales. In 1570 Perrot reluctantlyaccepted the newly created post of lord president of Munster. He landed at Waterford in February of the next year, and energetically set about the reduction of the province. In the course of two years he hunted down James Fitzmaurice Fitzgerald, whose submission he received in 1572. Perrot resented the reinstatement of Gerald Fitzgerald, I 5th earl of Desmond, and after vainly seeking his own recall left Ireland without leave in July 1573, and presenting himself at court was allowed to resign his office, in which he was succeeded by Sir William Drury. He returned to his Welsh home, where he was fully occupied with his duties as vice-admiral of the Welsh seas and a member of the council of the marches. Although in 1578 he was accused by the deputy-admiral, Richard Vaughan, of tyranny, subversion of justice and of dealings with the pirates, he evidently retained the royal confidence, for he was made commissioner for piracy in Pembrokeshire in 1578, and ir the next year was put in command of a squadron charged tc intercept Spanish ships on the Irish coast.
