William Paulet, 4th Marquess of Winchester (bef. 1560[1] – 4 February 1629) was an English nobleman, the son of William Paulet, 3rd Marquess of Winchester and Anne or Agnes Howard.[2] He was styled Lord St. John from 1576 to 1598. He was summoned to Parliament on 16 January 1581 in his father's barony as Lord St. John.[1] On 24 November 1598, he succeeded his father as 4th Marquess of Winchester. Paulet experienced great financial difficulties arising from his magnificent style of living and his lavish entertainment of Elizabeth IatBasing House.[1][3]

Marriage and issue[edit]

On 28 February 1587 at St Martin-in-the-Fields, he married Lady Lucy Cecil, daughter of Sir Thomas Cecil, 1st Earl of Exeter and his first wife, Dorothy Neville.[1] Lucy and William had six children:[4]

His wife, Lucy, was treated for cancer in 1614 by the court physician Théodore de Mayerne.[5] She died 1 October 1614 and was buried a month later in the Cecil vault in Westminster Abbey.[1]

Death[edit]

William Paulet died at Hackwood, near Basingstoke, on 4 February 1629, and was buried at Basing, Hampshire.[1]
