In 1621, Peyton was elected Member of Parliament for Cambridgeshire. He was High Sheriff of Cambridgeshire and Huntingdonshire from 1622 to 1623. In 1625 he was re-elected MP for Cambridgeshire and was returned again in 1626.[3] He took an active part in the Civil War on the Parliamentary side, but so impoverished himself that he had to sell Isleham.[1]

.2 JOSEPH

Edward represented Cambridgeshire in Parliament beginning in 1621, during the reign of James I, and serving until 1628, in the reign of Charles I. Sir Edward clashed vehemently with the Stuarts and their Devine Right of Kings position. Charles I tried to have him tried for treason and only his powerfull position in Parliament saved him. He was a Puritan supporter of his boyhood friend Oliver Cromwell and wrote religious pamphlets attacking the immorality of the Stuart court. He was, however, always against dictatorship. The English Civil War started in 1641causing great turmoil in the land. In the ensuing cataclysm he lost his fortune, including having to sell Isleham by 1642. He was later regared by Cromwell as disaffected, suffering financially from both sides during the war.(785 vol 1:71,76)

Edward died a broken man in 1657 and is buried at Wicken, Cambridgeshire.(785 vol.1:71)
