Thomas Egerton, 1st Viscount Brackley, PC (1540 – 15 March 1617) was an English nobleman, judge and statesman who served as Lord Keeper and Lord Chancellor for twenty-one years.
Thomas Egerton was born in 1540 in the parish of Dodleston, Cheshire, England. He was the illegitimate son of Sir Richard Egerton and an unmarried woman named Alice Sparks. He was acknowledged by his father’s family, who paid for his education. He studied Liberal Arts at Brasenose College, Oxford, and received a Bachelor’s Degree in 1559. He then studied law at Lincoln's Inn and became a barrister.[1] He was a Roman Catholic, until a point in 1570 when his lack of conformity with the Church of England became an issue when his Inn passed on a complaint from the Privy Council.[2]
He built a respectable legal practice pleading cases in the Courts of Queen’s Bench, Chancery and Exchequer. After Queen Elizabeth I saw him plead a case against the crown he was made Queen's Counsel. In 1579 he was made a Master of the Bench of Lincoln’s Inn. On 28 June 1581 he was appointed Solicitor General.
He married Elizabeth Ravenscroft and by her fathered:
Thomas, who married Elizabeth Venables; their daughter, Mary, was married to Thomas Leigh, 1st Baron Leigh
John (his heir),
Mary, who married Sir Francis Leigh.
As Solicitor General, Egerton became .... etc.
During this time his first wife died, and he married Elizabeth Wolley, the widow of Sir John Wolley, and daughter of Sir William More of Loseley, Surrey. He bought Tatton Park, in 1598. It would stay in the family for more than three centuries.[3] Also at this time - 1597 or 1598 - he hired John Donne as secretary. This arrangement ended in some embarrassment, since Donne secretly married Ann More, Elizabeth's niece, in 1601.
Elizabeth died around the beginning of 1600, and then Egerton married Alice Spencer, whose first husband had been Ferdinando Stanley, 5th Earl of Derby.[4][5] She survived him by two decades, and was an important patron of the arts, usually known as the Dowager Countess of Derby.
