Roger James (died 1636)
Sir Roger James (1589–1636)[1] was an English landowner and politician who sat in the House of Commons in 1625.
James was descended from a family of Dutch brewers named van Haestricht who took the surname James after they settled in London in about 1540.
James died at the age of about 47.[1]
On 30 January 1611, James married Margaret Aucher (d. April 1662), daughter of Anthony Aucher of Bishopsbourne, Kent. His son Roger was also later MP for Regiate.[2]
