Richard Trevor (politician)

Sir Richard Trevor (1558 - 1638) was a Welsh landowner, soldier and politician.

Trevor was knighted in 1597, while on military service in Ireland, and, like his younger brothers Sackville Trevor and John Trevor, he enjoyed the patronage of Charles Howard, 1st Earl of Nottingham. Sir Richard inherited the Trevor family estate of Trevalun in Denbighshire and became a member of the Council of Wales and the Marches in 1602. From 1596 to 1626 he was vice-admiral of North Wales.
