Research Notes
"Nicholas Boscawen of Tregothnan near Falmouth in Cornwall was a colonel in Oliver Cromwell's Parliamentary army and was buried in the middle part of the Quire in Westminster Abbey in 1645. He was the eldest son of Hugh Boscawen and his wife Margaret (Rolle) and three of his brothers, Hugh, Charles and Edward, became Members of Parliament. His regiment of horse was mainly composed of his own tenants. But in 1661, by Royal Warrant dated 9 September, his remains were disinterred, along with other followers of Cromwell, and buried in a pit in St Margaret's churchyard outside the Abbey."[1]
