David Peck’s paper documents the family, social, religious and political environment which led Sir John Throckmorton, a wealthy member of the landed gentry with a staunch Catholic upbringing, to being initiated into one of the most influential London lodges and, at the age of 42, to appointment as a Grand Officer with the rank of Provincial Grand Master. Throckmorton lived some 50 miles from London and was an avid campaigner for civil rights for Roman Catholics.
