(1584-1643) Second Lord Arundell of Wardour. Son of Thomas Arundell, died Oxford, England. He fought for Charles I against the Parliament, in 1642, and was wounded in battle. His wife, Lady Blanche Arundell (1583-1649), was the daughter of Edward, Earl of Worcester. During the absence of her husband, in the spring of 1643, she defended Wardour Castle for eight days with 25 men against a Parliamentary force of 1300. She refused the proffered terms of quarter for women and children only, and succeeded in obtaining mercy for all.
