  Henry Brooke, 8th Baron Cobham - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Henry Brooke, 8th or 11th Baron Cobham (November 22, 1564 – January 24, 1618 (Old Style)/February 3, 1619 (New Style)) was an English peer and traitor who was implicated in the Main Plot against the rule of James I of England.
Cobham and Grey were to raise one-hundred and sixty thousand pounds (a figure that could be safely multiplied by twenty to convert to contemporary money) to bribe or hire an army.
Cobham was to be the go-between with the Count of Aremberg, which would negotiate with the Spanish court for the money.

Henry Brooke, 8th Baron Cobham (November 22, 1564 – January 24, 1618 (Old Style)/February 3, 1619 (New Style)) was a English peer and traitor who was implicated in the Main Plot against the rule of James I of England.
One of the arguments used to attempt to inculpate Salisbury in the plot are the death-bed allegations of Robert Catesby's servant stating that Salisbury and Catesby, one of the principal Gunpowder Plotters, met on three separate occasions in the period leading up to the events of the night of 5 November 1605.

 William BROOKE (5° B. Cobham)
Brooke's knighthood, conferred on 1 Dec 1548 during the second session of the Parliament, suggests that he then stood well with the Protectoral regime, although his connexion with Northampton must later have aligned him with Somerset's rival Northumberland.
Brooke's election 18 months later for Rochester, which had been the starting-point of the rebellion, could therefore have given little satisfaction at court, and even less when towards the close of this Parliament he joined the opposition to one of the government's bills.
Cobham named as another executor his cousin, Sir Edward Wotton, and desired his friend Lord Burghley, and his son-in-law Sir Robert Cecil, to be overseers of his will.
