Sir George Chudleigh, 1st Baronet (c. 1578 – 15 January 1658), of Ashton, Devon, was an English landowner and politician, who sat in the House of Commons at various times between 1601 and 1625. He had close family connections to a group of Devon Presbyterians, including Sir William Strode. The Royalists held Devon from 1643 to early 1646; he garrisoned Ashton on their behalf, while avoiding active involvement. Fined by the Parliamentary Sequestration Committee in 1647, his connections meant he escaped major punishment. He died in January 1658. rdf:langString

rdf:langString Sir George Chudleigh, 1st Baronet (c. 1578 – 15 January 1658), of Ashton, Devon, was an English landowner and politician, who sat in the House of Commons at various times between 1601 and 1625. He had close family connections to a group of Devon Presbyterians, including Sir William Strode. He generally supported Parliament in the political disputes prior to the 1642 to 1646 First English Civil War. In its opening stages, he served as a Parliamentary Lieutenant-General, and Governor of Exeter, but was one of many on both sides who wanted a negotiated peace. He resigned his commission in September 1643. The Royalists held Devon from 1643 to early 1646; he garrisoned Ashton on their behalf, while avoiding active involvement. Fined by the Parliamentary Sequestration Committee in 1647, his connections meant he escaped major punishment. He died in January 1658.
