Salusbury Family

An ancient Welsh family of oligarchs, the Salusbury Family arrived with William the Conqueror in 1066. The family was first recognized by the crown during the reign of Henry VII after Thomas Salusbury put down a rebellion in Cornwall. Fighting as Royalist during the English Civil War, John Salusbury, the second son of Sir Thomas Salusbury, received a baronetcy on 10 November, 1619 during the reign of Charles II for his father's contributions to the Crown.
