Thomas Arundell of Wardour was born circa 1560 into an ancient Anglo-Norman family. At a young age, with the consent of Queen Elizabeth and with her letters of recommendation to the Emperor he went as a volunteer in the Imperial army to fight the Turks. For his conspicuous gallantry in those wars he earned the soubriquet THE VALIANT. At the battle of GRAN in Hungary 1595 he captured a standard from the Turks with his own hands.
The Emperor Rudolph II thereupon created him, by a unique and remarkable Imperial decree dated the 14th of December 1595, COUNT of the HOLY ROMAN EMPIRE.
