Edward Whalley (c. 1607 – c. 1675) was an English military leader during the English Civil War, and was one of the regicides who signed the death warrant of King Charles I of England. Horace Vere, 1st Baron Vere of Tilbury (1565 – 2 May 1635) (also "Horatio Vere" or "Horatio de Vere") was an English military leader during the Eighty Years' War and the Thirty Years' War, a son of Geoffrey Vere and brother of Francis Vere.

The Talbot Shrewsbury Book (London, British Library Royal 15 E vi) is a very large richly-illuminated manuscript made in Rouen (Normandy) in 1444/5.  It was presented by John Talbot, 1st Earl of Shrewsbury (d. 1453) to the French princess, Margaret of Anjou (b. 1430, d. 1482), in honour of her betrothal to King Henry VI (r. 1422-1461).  It contains a unique collection of fifteen texts in French, including chansons de geste, chivalric romances, treatises on warfare and chivalry, and finally the Statues of the Order of the Garter.  The work is an excellent example of book production in Rouen in the mid-fifteenth century and provides a rare insight into the political views of the English military leader and close confidant of the crown, John Talbot. Baron Russell of Thornhaugh is a title in the Peerage of England.  It was created in 1603 for the English military leader, the Honourable Sir William Russell.

Frederick Paul de Vere Capell, 11th Earl of Essex (born 29 May 1944) is the current Earl of Essex.  He succeeded his father Robert Capell, 10th Earl of Essex, in 2005. Andrew Harclay, 1st Earl of Carlisle (ca. 1270 – 3 March 1323), alternatively Andreas de Harcla, was an important English military leader in the borderlands with Scotland during the reign of Edward II.  Coming from a knightly family in Westmorland, he was appointed sheriff of Cumberland in 1311.  He distinguished himself in the Scottish Wars, and in 1315 repulsed a siege on Carlisle Castle by Robert the Bruce.  Shortly after this, he was taken captive by the Scots, and only released after a substantial ransom had been paid.  His greatest achievement came in 1322, when he defeated the rebellious baron Thomas of Lancaster at the Battle of Boroughbridge on 16–17 March.  For this he was created Earl of Carlisle.
