He was probably the 'Mr. George Cooke' who was appointed to the committee on tellers and receivers on 12 Dec. Croke began reporting law cases in 1581& is mentioned as an advocate in his own reports in 1588. He established a lucrative practice & built up estates in Oxfordshire & Buckinghamshire. He was associated with the Hampden family was named as overseer in the will of William Hampden & must have known John Hampden for whom he later gave judgment in the ship-money case. Croke's marriage 'fell out unexpected to his friends that conceived a purpose in him never to have married' she being some 20 years of age & he 'an ancient bachelor'. Croke's law reports published after his death in a translation from the law French by Harbottle Grimston his son-in-law soon occupied a considerable place in the authoritative literature of the common law. The 12 active years which he spent on the King's bench coincided with some of the great constitutional cases of the century. He is best remembered in connexion with ship-money. In 1637 Charles submitted the question to the judges all of whom-save for Croke and Sir Richard Hutton-agreed that the King could demand such financial aid from his subjects in time of danger. The two dissidents signed this general statement in the belief that they were bound to yield to the majority opinion. However when the problem came before him judicially in the Hampden case he made an outright statement declaring that there was no precedent for such a prosecution and that only Parliament might set a charge upon a subject. 'The King has ship money by hook but not by Croke' said the wits. In 1641 Croke retired retaining the title salary & allowances of a judge. He died at Waterstock 16 Feb. 1642 leaving two wills the first being concerned with the disposal of land to his wife and son Thomas. In the second made 1640 and proved 3 May 1642 he asked to be buried without 'heraldry' hearse or any 'unnecessary ceremonies'. The widow was appointed sole executrix.--historyofparliamentonline ; Sir Harbottle Grimston 1603-1685 English politician second son of Sir Harbottle Grimston Bart. d. 1648 was born at Bradfield Hall near Manningtree on the 27th of January 1603.
