Charles Paulet, 1st Duke of Bolton Template:Post-nominals (Template:CircaTemplate:Sfn – 27 February 1699) was an English politician who represented Winchester and Hampshire in the House of Commons of England from 1660 to 1675. He was the son of John Paulet, 5th Marquess of Winchester, and his first wife, Jane Savage.Template:Sfn

Career

Paulet succeeded his father as the sixth Marquess of Winchester in 1675. He was MP for Winchester in 1660 and then for Hampshire from 1661 to 5 March 1675.Template:Sfn Before his succession to the Marquessate he was styled Lord St John.Template:Sfn

He held the following offices:Template:Sfn

Having supported the claim of William and Mary to the English throne in 1688, he was restored to the Privy Council and to the office of Lord Lieutenant of Hampshire, and was created Duke of Bolton on 9 April 1689.Template:Sfn He built Bolton Hall, North Yorkshire in 1678.<ref>{{#invoke:citation/CS1|citation |CitationClass=web }}</ref>

Character

An eccentric man, hostile to Lord Halifax and afterwards to the Duke of Marlborough, he is said to have travelled during 1687 with four coaches and 100 horsemen, sleeping during the day and giving entertainments at night. His adherence in adult life to the Church of England has been described as a great blow to the Roman Catholic community: his father (with whom his relationship was never good) had openly professed the Catholic faith, and used his wealth and influence to protect the Catholics of Hampshire.<ref>Kenyon, J.P The Popish Plot Phoenix Press reissue 2000 p.34</ref>

In 1666 he briefly went into hiding after becoming involved in a public fracas in Westminster Hall with Sir Andrew Henley, 1st Baronet. They fought in full view of the Court of Common Pleas, and were thus guilty of contempt coram rege. Both men in time received a royal pardon. Paulet, who admitted to striking the first blow, explained that he had been "in a passion" at the time. The precise cause of the quarrel is unknown. Samuel Pepys, who recorded the incident in the great Diary, remarked that it was a pity that Henley retaliated, for otherwise, the judges might have dealt with Paulet, of whom Pepys had a poor opinion, as he deserved.<ref>Diary of Samuel Pepys 29 November 1666</ref> Despite his faults, his charm and affability made him numerous friends.

Charles Paulet married twice:
