Colonel Piers Butler. The Morres had been a Catholic family, but Hervey Morres secured his and his family’s future by not only converting to Protestantism but joining Cromwell’s Puritan, anti-Catholic army. He was well rewarded for doing so: in 1684 he was granted property, presumably confiscated from its previous owners, which was renamed Castle Morres. Further, he lived to a ripe old age, dying aged 99 frances_butler.txt Last modified: 2017/08/20 14:31by judith
