Biography |
|---|
| Sir John Banks, husband of Lady Mary Hawtrey Banks, was a prominent English lawyer and politician who rose to high office during the reign of King Charles I. He studied law and entered Gray's Inn, eventually serving in the House of Commons. Bankes's legal acumen led to his appointment as Attorney General in 1634, where he was involved in significant legal matters, including the controversial ship money cases. In 1640, he was appointed Chief Justice of the Common Pleas, one of the highest judicial positions in England. Bankes was a staunch supporter of King Charles I, and his career was deeply intertwined with the King's. He remained loyal to the Royalist cause during the English Civil War, following the King to York. His wife, Lady Mary Bankes, famously defended Corfe Castle against Parliamentary forces. Bankes's fidelity to the monarchy defined his actions and contributions during this tumultuous period in English history9 |

Three times they attempted the place by surprise and were as often repulsed with loss, though the first time Lady Bankes had but five men in the place, and during the whole time her garrison never exceeded forty during this First siege, lasting six weeks and ending in the flight of the besiegers. At last the Earl of Carnarvon, having with a considerable body of horse and dragoons cleared a great part of the west, came into the neighbourhood of Purbeck, whereupon Sir Walter Erie raised his siege, August 4th, 1643, so hastily that he left his tents standing, together with his ammunition and artillery, all of which fell into the hands of Lady Bankes's household.3,4 |

Biography |
|---|
| During the English Civil War, Lady Mary Hawtrey Banks, wife of Sir John Bankes II, is best known for her staunch Royalist defense of Corfe Castle during the English Civil War. When Parliamentary forces besieged the castle, Lady Bankes took charge, organizing its defense with remarkable determination. She and her small garrison, which included her daughters and servants, famously resisted multiple attacks. Her leadership and bravery in holding out against the Parliamentary forces earned her the nickname "Brave Dame Mary" and solidified her place in history as a symbol of Royalist fortitude and female resilience during a turbulent period in English history1,6 |
