If a Sussex man were a Captain in the military in the 1630's or 1640's, what military actions would have taken place in those years to cause a man to join the military? Thank you. r/Steven

Hi Steven Very, very brief background of these years. 1625-30 saw England at war with Spain and France. 1637 saw Civil war with Scotland, and then of course 1642 saw the outbreak of the English Civil War. If you check out your local library they may have something more specific to Sussex. Or to check out the 355 section which is on military history.
