As for the future of these people. John Killigrew survived until 1605, in prison or sometimes, when the Privy Council relented, out of it, in company with a jailer to see to his chaotic affairs. The mystery of Jane Fermor’s dowry has never been cleared up, but the one reasonably well-grounded account is that the whole dowry came with her on her wedding day and was buried secretly by her two servants at Gyllyngvase in the Arwenack grounds about a mile from the house where she contrived to have access to it in time of need while denying it to her husband and her father-in-law. John Killigrew, her husband, in a career of many vicissitudes including a decadelong battle to divorce his wife obtained from James I permission to found the town of Falmouth; and his brother Peter, walking a successful tightrope between King and Parliament, procured a charter for it in 1661.
Jack Arundell of Trerice became Sir John Arundell and was governor of Pendennis Castle in 1646 when with a tiny garrison it held out against Fairfax for five months, being the last place in ~:ngland to fly the royal standard for Charles. Thomas Arundell married his Bridget Mobun, sold Tolverne and moved to London. He was knighted at Greenwich in 1603, inherited Truthall from his uncle and, after losing money in an unwise speculation, returned to Cornwall and made his new home there. Gertrude Arundell (nee Carew) soon remarried. Her second husband was William Carey of Clovelly, brother of Jack Arundell’s wife.
Lord Henry Howard was of course one of the principal movers behind Cecil in bringing King James smoothly to the throne. He was also largely responsible for poisoning James’s mind against Ralegh and was a judge at Ralegh’s trial in 1603. During James’s lifetime undeserved honours were heaped upon this man.
Finally perhaps I should say that I have attributed to Maugan certain characteristics of one, Robert Killigrew, who became a close personal friend of Ralegh’s, who was highly skilled in the mixing of medicines and herbal remedies, and who was later innocently involved in the murder of Sir Thomas Overbury. But this is - or - some day may be another story.
