From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Thomas Burton (??-1661), of Brampton Hall, Westmorland, was MP for Westmorland from 1656 to 1659. His diary, the six manuscript volumes of which reside in the British Library, is a key record of proceedings in the Parliaments of 1656-9. It was edited and published in four volumes in 1828 by J.T. Rutt.
