MAWE or MAW, LEONARD (d. 1629), bishop of Bath and Wells, son of Simon Mawe, gentleman, of Rendlesham, Suffolk, by his wife Margery, daughter and co-heiress of Thomas Wyld of Yorkshire, by his wife Alice, daughter and heiress of John Jago of Suffolk (WOOD), was born at Rendlesham, and educated at Cambridge, where he was admitted fellow of Peterhouse in 1595, and having proceeded M.A. was incorporated at Oxford in 1 599. He was proctor of the univer- sity of Cambridge, 1609, was chosen master of Peterhouse, 1617, and vice-chancellor, 1621. He held a prebend at Wells, and was chaplain to Charles, prince of Wales. When Charles was in Spain in 1623, King James sent Mawe and Matthew Wren [(J.v.J, afterwards bishop of Ely, along with other officers and attend- ants, to join him, charging the chaplains to fit up a room chapel-wise, hold prayers twice a day, and generally so to manage as to com- mend the English service to the Spaniards \\ (GABDiXEft). Mawe and the rest set sail on 3 April. During his journey through Spain j he had a fall from his mule, ' lighting on his head and shoulders ' (Wi'NN). The prince I was obliged to send orders that the greater i
of the company was to return to Eng- land without coming on to Madrid, and Mawe returned through France. As a re- ward for his services he was appointed master of Trinity College by patent in 1625. Before he left Peterhouse he gave 300/. for covering the roof of the chapel then being built there with lead. As master of Trinity College he did much towards freeing that foundation from a heavy debt (FuLLEK). He used all his influence to secure the elec- tion of the Duke of Buckingham as chan- cellor of the university in 1626, urging the members of his college to vote unanimously for the duke (Original Letters). In 1628 he received the see of Bath and Wells, being elected 24 June, and consecrated at Croy- don 7 Sept. He died on 2 Sept. 1629 at Chiswick, and was buried in the church there. He was ' a good scholar, a grave preacher, a mild man, and one of gentle de- portment' (FULLER). There is a portrait of him in the palace at Wells.

Occupation:
The prospect of a Spanish dowry from a marriage between Charles, Prince of Wales and the Spanish Infanta, Maria was a potential source of income for James I, who sought ways to rule without depending on the Commons for subsidies.[1] The policy of the "Spanish Match", as it was called, was supported by the Howards and other Catholic-leaning ministers and diplomats— together known as the Spanish Party— but deeply distrusted in Protestant England, a sentiment voiced vociferously in the Commons when James called his first parliament for seven years in 1621 to raise funds for a military expedition in support of Frederick V, Elector Palatine .
By the 1620s, events on the continent had stirred up anti-Catholic feeling to a new pitch. A conflict had broken out between the Catholic Holy Roman Empire and the Protestant Bohemians, who had deposed the emperor as their king and elected James's son-in-law, Frederick V, Elector Palatine, in his place, triggering the Thirty Years' War .[2] James reluctantly summoned parliament as the only means to raise the funds necessary to assist his daughter Elizabeth and Frederick, who had been ousted from Prague by Emperor Ferdinand II in 1620. The Commons on the one hand granted subsidies inadequate to finance serious military operations in aid of Frederick,[3] and on the other called for a war directly against Spain.[4]
In November 1621, led by Sir Edward Coke , the Commons framed a petition asking not only for a war with Spain but for Prince Charles to marry a Protestant, and for enforcement of the anti-Catholic laws.[5] James flatly told them not to interfere in matters of royal prerogative or they would risk punishment;[6] to which provocation they reacted by issuing a statement protesting their rights, including freedom of speech.[7] Urged on by Buckingham and the Spanish ambassador Gondomar , James ripped the protest out of the record book and dissolved Parliament.[8]
Denied the military option, James ignored public opinion and returned to the Spanish match as his only hope of restoring the possessions of Elizabeth and Frederick. When negotiations began to drag, Prince Charles, now 23, and Buckingham, decided to seize the initiative and travel to Spain incognito,[9] to win the Infanta directly. Arriving in Madrid on 17 February 1623 to the astonishment of King Philip IV , the impetuous delegation proved a desperate mistake. Charles and Buckingham had no idea that Maria was strongly averse to marrying a non-Catholic and that the Spanish, who had been protracting the marriage negotiations to keep British troops out of the war, would never agree to such a match unless Charles converted to Catholicism and pledged to repeal the anti-Catholic laws.[10] Though a secret treaty was signed, the prince and duke returned to England in October without the Infanta, much to the delight of the British people.[11]
Embittered by their treatment in Spain, Charles and Buckingham now turned James's Spanish policy upon its head and called for a French match and a war against the Habsburg empire.[12] To raise the necessary finance, they prevailed upon James to call another Parliament, which met in February 1624. For once, the outpouring of anti-Catholic sentiment in the Commons was echoed in court, where control of policy had shifted from James to Charles and Buckingham,[13] who pressured the king to declare war and engineered the impeachment and imprisonment of the Lord Treasurer , Lionel Cranfield , earl of Middlesex , when he opposed the idea on grounds of cost.[14]
The outcome of the Parliament of 1624 was ambiguous: James still refused to declare war, but Charles believed the Commons had committed themselves to financing a war against Spain, a stance which was to contribute to his problems with Parliament in his own reign.[15]

List of Masters
The head of Trinity College is the Master. The first Master was John Redman who was appointed in 1546. The role is a Royal appointment and in the past was sometimes made by the Monarch as a favour to an important person. Nowadays the Fellows of the College, and to a lesser extent the Government, choose the new Master and the Royal role is only nominal. A complete list of the Masters of Trinity is below.

Occupation:
1628, July 24.— Leonard Mawe, S.T.D., elected bishop of Bath and Wells, on the translation of bishop Laud to the see of London, pursuant to letters patent of the king of license to elect.—ƒo. 75.

1629, Oct. 29.— Walter Curle, S.T.D., bishop of Rochester, elected bishop of Bath and Wells, on the death of Leonard Mawe, pursuant to letters patent of the king giving license to elect. The dean was not at home and his key of the chest in the treasury, where the common or chapter seal is kept, cannot be found; the dean's wife said that she had not got it. Ordered that the chest be opened for the sealing of the necessary letters and certificates.—ƒo. 91d.

Comments: Hello, last night I sent a message linked to Mary Browne(|12733)of Spexhall, Suffolk, England. Which I believe was sent, I also sent another email linked to William Downing (|12720)of Spexhall, Suffolk, England which I sent but I believe there were problems, but this evening I found your 'Contact Us' section and thought I would send another email about William Downing of Spexhall. If I remember correctly you had 3 children for William Downing and Alice Mawe but no names.

Biography
Burwell was a younger son of a minor Suffolk family that had acquired manorial property in Elizabethan times. As chancellor of Durham before the Civil War, he supported the Arminian party in the chapter, led by John Cosin, and was impeached in 1642 for sending a puritan canon to London in a cart. During the Interregnum he was sheltered by his eldest brother Francis, who provided him not only with meat, drink and clothing, but a horse and servant of his own.3

Burwell regained his post at the Restoration, and was additionally appointed chancellor of York. He was returned for Ripon at the general election of 1661 on the archbishop's interest. A very active committeeman, he was appointed to 226 committees, including the committee of elections and privileges in nine sessions, acted as teller in four divisions, and made six recorded speeches. He was listed by Lord Wharton as a moderate, but took part in all the measures of the Clarendon Code, though he was unable to receive the sacrament at the corporate communion of 26 May because of illness. His chief interests were naturally ecclesiastical, and in the first session of the Cavalier Parliament he was among those ordered to draft a proviso to the ecclesiastical commissions bill, to bring in a bill for the maintenance of the urban clergy, to collate the text of the revised Book of Common Prayer, and to produce a definition of those required to subscribe to the declaration in the uniformity bill. In 1663 he was appointed to the committee to consider the bill to hinder the growth of Popery, and added to that to which the prevention of sectarian meetings had been referred. He was listed as a court dependant in 1664. He appears to have regarded himself as to some degree the representative of Durham in the Commons, acting as teller with (Sir) Francis Goodricke, the temporal chancellor, for a motion to reduce the tax assessment of the county. In the Oxford session he was teller against the hemp and flax bill, and was added to the committee for attainting English fugitives in the service of the enemy. He was named to the committees on the bills for confirming the lease of certain lead-mines by Cosin, now bishop of Durham, to Humphrey Wharton, establishing the Hilton charity, and illegitimizing the children of Lady Roos, the wife of John Manners.4

Burwell took no part in the attack on Clarendon, though he was among those ordered to inquire into restraints on jurors in the session that immediately followed the chancellor's dismissal, and to consider legalizing the transfer of Exchequer bills. He introduced a petition for a county Durham land bill, and his name stood first on the list of the committee, as well as the committee for the revived Hilton charity bill. In the debate on the intestacy bill of 17 Mar. 1668 he defended the jurisdiction of the ecclesiastical courts. He spoke and voted against the bill to enfranchise Durham:

If this bill should pass all the bishop's tenants (which were a great part of the county) would be excluded from having voices, they being copyholders, and so the freemen, which are not a tenth part of the county, should only be the electors. He also affirmed that the election hath been in the same state that now it is time out of mind, and that this motion now brought in by this bill had formerly been rejected.
His name was on both lists of the court party in 1669-71 among those to be engaged by the Duke of York. In 1669 he was appointed to the committees to consider renewing the Conventicles Act and to receive information about seditious conventicles. He was also among those to whom the bill to prevent abuses in parliamentary elections was referred. When the Lords sent down a bill to enable Lord Roos to remarry in view of his wife's persistent adultery, Burwell denounced it as an offence against the law of God. In Jan. 1671 he was appointed to ask Dr Outram to preach on the anniversary of Charles I's execution, and afterwards thanked him for his sermon. He was named to another committee to prevent the growth of Popery on 2 Mar., took the chair for a charity bill, and acted as teller for an amendment to the corn bounty to protect English shipping. In 1673 he was among those ordered to consider the enfranchisement of Durham and toleration for Protestant dissenters; but he spoke heatedly against the bill of ease on third reading, warning the House that 'a puritan was ever a rebel' and that 'dissenters made up the whole army against the King [when] the destruction of the Church was then aimed at'. Within a week of this outburst he was dead. He was buried at St. Margaret's, Westminster, on 25 Mar., aged 70. He died intestate, and no other member of his family entered Parliament.5
