WILLIAM PELHAM (c. 1530-1587), third son of Sir William Pelham (d. 1538) of Laughton, Sussex, became See also:lord See also:justice of See also:Ireland. He was See also:captain of pioneers at the See also:siege of See also:Leith in 156o, and served at the siege of See also:Havre in 1562, and with See also:Coligny at See also:Caen in 1563.

time occupied by See also:English troops, and was one of the hostages for the fulfilment of its surrender to See also:Charles IX. in 1564. After his return to England he fortified See also:Berwick among other places, and was appointed See also:lieutenant-See also:general of See also:ordnance. He was sent to Ireland in 1579, when he was knighted by Sir William See also:Drury, the lord justice. Drury died in See also:October, and Pelham was provisionally made his successor, an appointment subsequently confirmed by Elizabeth. Alarmed by the proceedings of Gerald See also:Fitzgerald, 15th earl of See also:Desmond, and his brother John Desmond, he proclaimed the earl a traitor. Elizabeth protested strongly against Pelham's See also:action, which was justified by the See also:sack of See also:Youghal by Desmond. Thomas Butler, loth earl of See also:Ormonde, was entrusted with the See also:campaign in See also:Munster, but Pelham joined him in February 158o, when it was believed that a See also:Spanish descent was about to be made in the See also:south-See also:west. The English generals laid See also:waste See also:northern See also:Kerry, and proceeded to besiege Carrigafoyle Castle, which they stormed, giving no See also:quarter to See also:man, woman or See also:child. Other strongholds submitted on learning the See also:fate of Carrigafoyle, and were garrisoned by Pelham, who hoped with the concourse of See also:Admiral See also:Winter's See also:fleet to limit the struggle to Kerry. He vainly sought help from the gentry of the See also:county, who sympathized with Desmond, and were only brought to submission by a See also:series of " drives." After the arrival of the new See also:deputy, Lord See also:Grey of See also:Wilton, Pelham returned to England on the ground of See also:health. He had retained his See also:- OFFICE (from Lat. officium, " duty," " service," a shortened form of opifacium, from facere, " to do," and either the stem of opes, " wealth," " aid," or opus, " work ")
office as lieutenant-general of ordnance, and was now made responsible for debts incurred during his See also:absence. See also:Leicester desired his services in the Nether-lands, but it was only after much persuasion that Elizabeth set him See also:free to join the See also:army by accepting a See also:mortgage on his estates as See also:security for his liabilities. The favour shown by Leicester to Pelham caused serious jealousies among the English See also:officers, and occasioned a See also:camp brawl in which Sir Edward See also:Norris was injured. Pelham was wounded at Doesburg in 1586, and accompanied Leicester to England in 1587. Returning to the See also:Netherlands in the same year he died at See also:Flushing on the 24th of See also:November 1587. His See also:half-brother, Sir Edmund Pelham (d. 16o6), chief See also:baron of the See also:exchequer in Ireland, was the first English See also:judge to go on See also:circuit in See also:Ulster.
Sir William married Eleanor, daughter of Henry See also:Neville, earl of See also:Westmorland, and was the ancestor of the Pelhams of See also:Brocklesby, See also:Lincolnshire.
