Samuel Browne (MP for Rutland)

Samuel Browne (c.1634–1691) of Sutton Hall, Stretton in the county of Rutland, was a nephew of Samuel Browne (d. 1668). He may have been the Samuel Browne admitted to Emmanuel College, Cambridge in 1650.[1] He was appointed a militia commissioner by the Rump Parliament in 1659, and was M.P. for Rutland in the Convention Parliament of 1660, (his more famous and influential uncle was also a member of that parliament, member for the constituency of Bedfordshire).[2]

When he died Browne left some unmarried daughters.[2]
