Peter Yorke of Gouthwaite
'Peter Yorke (or York) (c. 1535 - about 17th. April 1589), of Gouthwaite, Yorkshire, was an English landowner and politician.
Peter Yorke was the son of Sir John Yorke (c.1490-1568) and Anne Smyth. He was educated at Peterhouse, Cambridge and admitted to the Middle Temple in 1557. In November 1560 he married Elizabeth Ingleby, daughter of Sir William Ingleby of Ripley Castle,Yorkshire, and Anne Ingleby (nee Mallory of Studley Royal, Yorkshire), and they resided Parcevall Hall, part of the Manor of Appletreewick, Yorkshire, a former possession of Bolton Priory - bought by Peter's father in 1549. When Peter's father died in 1568, Peter inherited the extensive former Byland Abbey estates in Nidderdale, which his father had bought in 1547, as well as Appletreewick Manor, which included valuable mining rights at Greenhow Hill.
He was a Member (MP) of the Parliament of England for Ripon in 1589.
In his will, proved on 4 July 1589, Yorke left most of his estates to his eldest son John.
