Sir William Mallory II: Knight Sheriff

Sir William Mallory succeeded to the titles of Studley and Hutton upon the death of his older brother Christopher March 23 1553/4. In 1569 the Catholic Earls of Northumberland and Westmoreland in Northern England rose up against the Protestant Queen Elizabeth. Sir William was on the side of the Queen, giving reports and advice to the Earl of Sussex. In 1590 he was appointed High Steward of Ripon, an office he held for life.

In 1585 he was a member of parliament for Yorkshire and was a high sheriff of the county in 1592. He zealously oppressed Catholics and aggressively advanced the Protestant Reformation. In 1575 the Commissioners at York for Ecclesiastical Causes asked him to pull down the golden tabernacle at Ripon, Brest Lowe, and to use the materials in repairing the chancel.

He was buried at Ripon March 22 1602/3 (will dated June 15 1586, recorded April 5 1603)
