Matthew Cradock (also spelled Craddock and Craddocke; died 27 May 1641) was a London merchant, politician, and the first governor of the Massachusetts Bay Company. Founded in 1628, it was an organization of Puritan businessmen that organized and established the Massachusetts Bay Colony. Although he never visited the colony, Cradock owned property and businesses there, and he acted on its behalf in London. His business and trading empire encompassed at least 18 ships, and extended from the West Indies and North America to Europe and the Near East. He was a dominant figure in the tobacco trade.

  • マシュー・クラドック(英: Matthew Cradock、綴りは Craddock や Craddocke もある、1641年5月27日死去)は、ロンドンの商人、政治家であり、マサチューセッツ湾会社初代総督を務めた。1628年に設立されたマサチューセッツ湾会社は、マサチューセッツ湾植民地を編成し設立したピューリタン実業家の組織だった。クラドックは植民地を訪れたことが無かったが、そこでの土地と事業を所有し、ロンドンでその利益のために行動した。その事業と交易帝国は少なくとも18隻の船舶を所有し、西インド諸島と北アメリカからヨーロッパ、近東にまで及んだ。タバコの交易を支配した人物だった。 クラドックはイングランド内戦に繋がる時代に議会派を強く支持した。東インド会社における王党派の保守主義に反対し、長期議会の議員として、イングランド国教会を急進的に改革しようとする「徹底請願」を支持した。1641年抗議では指導的な役割をはたし、それから間もなく死んだ。 (ja)
