Baptised 2 march 1595, 4th but 3rd surviving son of Sir Robert Spencer (d. 1627) 1st Baron Spencer of Wormleighton. Knighted 27 December 1625; died 11 February 1656. He was returned for Brackley at the general election of 1620, as the result of his family's connections with the borough's patron, the 1st earl of Bridgewater (John Egerton).
Editorial Notes
- [The information from Alumni oxon. is incorrect. Sir Edward Spencer did not suceed to his father's title, as 2nd Baron Spencer of Wormleighton. His elder brother William Spencer (1591-1636) inherited the title, which later passed to his son.]
