William See also:Shakespeare, was See also:born on the 24th of See also:April 1532, the son of William Lucy, and was descended, according to See also:Dugdale, from Thurstane de Cherlecote, whose son See also:Walter received the See also:village of Charlecote from Henry de See also:Montfort about 1190
.
Walter is said to have married into the Anglo-See also:Norman See also:family of Lucy, and his son adopted the See also:mother's surname
.
Three of Sir Thomas Lucy's ancestors had been sheriffs of Warwickshire and Leicester-See also:shire, and on his See also:father's death in 1552 he inherited See also:Sherborne and See also:Hampton Lucy in addition to Charlecote, which was rebuilt for him by John of See also:Padua, known as John See also:Thorpe, about 1558
.
By his See also:marriage with Joyce See also:Acton he inherited See also:Sutton See also:Park in See also:Worcestershire, and became in 1586 high sheriff of the county
.
He was knighted in 1565
.
He is said to have been under the tutorship of John See also:Foxe, who is supposed to have imbued his See also:- PUPIL (Lat. pupillus, orphan, minor, dim. of pupus, boy, allied to puer, from root pm- or peu-, to beget, cf. "pupa," Lat. for " doll," the name given to the stage intervening between the larval and imaginal stages in certain insects)

Oxford in 1545, and in 1547 went up to See also:London, so that the connexion must have been See also:short
.
He often appeared at See also:Stratford-on-See also:Avon as See also:justice of the See also:peace and as See also:commissioner of musters for the county
.
As justice of the peace he showed See also:great zeal against the Catholics, and took his See also:share in the See also:arrest of See also:Edward See also:Arden in 1583
.
In 1585 he introduced into parliament a See also:bill for the better preservation of See also:game and See also:grain, and his reputation as a preserver of game gives some See also:colour to the Shakespearian tradition connected with his name
.
See also:Nicholas Rowe, See also:writing in 1710, told a See also:story that Lucy prosecuted Shakespeare for See also:deer-sealing from Charlecote Park in 1585, and that
Shakespeare aggravated the offence by writing a ballad on his prosecutor
.
The trouble arising from this incident is said to have driven Shakespeare from Stratford to London
.
The See also:tale was corroborated by See also:Archdeacon See also:Davies of Sapperton, See also:Gloucester-shire, who died in 1708
.
The story is not necessarily falsified by the fact that there was no deer park at Charlecote at the See also:- TIME (0. Eng. Lima, cf. Icel. timi, Swed. timme, hour, Dan. time; from the root also seen in " tide," properly the time of between the flow and ebb of the sea, cf. O. Eng. getidan, to happen, " even-tide," &c.; it is not directly related to Lat. tempus)

time, since there was a See also:warren, and the See also:term warren legally covers a preserve for other animals than See also:hares or rabbits, See also:roe-deer among others
.
Shakespeare is generally supposed to have caricatured the See also:local See also:magnate of Stratford in his portrait of Justice Shallow, who made his first See also:appearance in the second part of Henry IV., and a second in the Merry Wives of See also:Windsor
.

There are many considerations which make it unlikely that Shallow represents Lucy, the chief being the See also:note-worthy difference in their circumstances

Lucy died at Charlecote on the 7th of See also:July 1600
