Individual Note:
     Became 2nd Viscount Campden on his father-in-law's death.
A Royalist, he died at Oxford fighting for Charles I.

Sir Edward Noel fell at Oxfordshire on the 8th of March 1642 while fighting for Charles I. This was a bloody civil war in which the king once said that in one afternoon he lost almost all his friends and relatives.
From a letter from Sir Huntingdon, 10th April 1643., "And now here is a new horde of' Plunderers' threatening the Association with new infall from the North. The old Newspapers call them Camdeners; followers of a certain Noel (it must be Baptist Noel), Viscount Camden, from Rutlandshire; who has seized Stamford, is driving cattle at a great rate, and fast threatening to become important in those quarters." Maybe it was in July 1643 that Campden House, which had been erected not long before by the first Viscount Campden at a cost of 30,000 pounds, was burnt down.
