Sir Philip de Carteret was appointed Lieutenant Governor of Jersey by Charles I, and, although a zealous Protestant, was always an ardent loyalist.
He was the son of Edouard de Carteret, Seigneur of Saint Ouen (d. 1533), and grandson of Philip De Carteret, 8th of St Ouen.
York and the White Rose were in the ascendancy, Edward IV was on the throne, his rival, Henry VI, was in the Tower, and his wife, Marguerite, was an exile in France.
•
During the Wars of the Roses, Queen Margaret, the wife of Henry VI, made an agreement with Pierre de Brézé, Comte de Maulevrier, the seneschal of Normandy, to raise an army, in aid of the Lancastrian cause, to capture Jersey and in the process to provide a refuge if it should be needed in the event of Yorkist success.
All this we glean from the anonymous Chronicler, who states that Le Boutillier was well fed and looked after, while de Carteret was badly used and half starved.
