Taking part in the great Civil War, he was a Commisssioner of Array, and very active on the King's side. He is stated to have died in 1646 or 1647 a prisoner in London. Duddo in Norhamshire, which was held by his widow in dower, was sequestered for her recusancy. He had issue six sons and four daughters. The three elder sons seem to have conformed, and were educated at Queen's College, Oxford. The fourth son became a priest and chaplain to the Benedictine nuns of Pontoise, where he seemingly died in 1694, aged 68. Sir John Clavering's eldest son, Robert, having died in his lifetime, he was succeeded by his second son, John Clavering of Callaly, whose estate was sequestered in 1650 for his recusancy. Dying unmarried, he was succeeded by his next brother, Ralph Clavering of Queen's College, Oxford, and of Lincoln's Inn, who, on the 25th August, 1666, entered his pedigree in Dugdale's Visitation of Northumberland. By his marriage with Mary, daughter of William Middleton of Stokeld, Yorkshire, he had issue a son, John, born circa 1659, who was entered at Lincoln's Inn 18th February, 1670-1. The dilapidations to the estate in the time of the Civil War and Commonwealth had left it in the pitiable condition disclosed by the certificate abstracted in the text, the mortgagees being then in possession. Happily, John Clavering had only one sister, Mary, wife of Gerard Salvin of Croxdale, to be a charge on the estate; and by his marriage with Anne, daughter of William, second Lord Widdrington, he had only one son and one daughter. John Clavering was buried in the chancel of Whittingham 14th October, 1724. cf. Welford, Royalist Compositions, pp. 155-157.
