About Thomas Blagge
Colonel Thomas Blagge (13 July 1613 – 4 November 1660) served as Groom of the Chamber to Charles I and his son Charles II. He fought for the Royalists during the Wars of the Three Kingdoms, and following the Execution of Charles I in January 1649, joined the exiled Stuart court in France. He helped Charles II evade capture after defeat at Worcester in 1651, and although arrested himself, escaped from the Tower of London. He remained in exile for the next decade, fighting in the Franco-Spanish War during the brief Royalist alliance with Spain.
