John Evelyn (1620-1706) was born at Wotton, Surrey, on 31 October 1620, the son of Richard Evelyn and Eleanor, daughter of John Stansfield. He was admitted a student at the Middle Temple in 1637, and that year became a Fellow of Balliol College, Oxford. He was a royalist, and travelled through France and Italy between 1643 and 1647 in order to avoid the disturbances in England. During this time, he engaged in a lengthy period of study, developing a great knowledge of classical literature and science. On returning to England, he settled at Sayes Court, Deptford, where he pursued gardening. After the Restoration, he was a founding member of the Royal Society. He died in Dover Street, London, on 27 February 1706.
