Sir Roger Cholmeley (c.1485-1565), illegitmate son of Sir Richard Cholmeley or Cholmley, lieutenant of the Tower of London. He trained as a lawyer at Lincoln's Inn from around 1506 and was admitted as a common pleader in the city of London in 1518, where he seems to have been very successful. He became serjeant-at-law in 1531 and was knighted 3 years later. He was later recorder of London and served in parliament for the city and for Middlesex. He rose to be chief baron of the exchequer and then lord chief justice, albeit only for a year. He settled in Highgate in Middlesex and founded Highgate School in 1562.
