William Goffe, c. 1613/1618 - 1679/1680, was a religious radical from London who fought for Parliament during the Wars of the Three Kingdoms. Nicknamed “Praying William” by contemporaries, he was a leading advocate of putting Charles I on trial and later approved his execution in January 1649. He escaped prosecution as a regicide after the 1660 Stuart Restoration by fleeing to the New England Colonies. (From Wikipedia) More about William Goffe:
