About the 27th of March, 1616, the Kings Master Shipwright Sir Phineas Pett had bargained with Sir Walter Raleigh to build a vessel of 500 tons, and received £500 from him on that account. The King, through the under the recommendation of the Lord Admiral, allowed Pett to lay her keel on the galley dock at Woolwich royal dockyard. In the same year he was commissioned by the Lord Zouche, then Lord Warden of the Cinque Ports, to construct a pinnace of 40 tons, in respect of which Pett remarks: James VI of Scotland and I of England (Charles James) (19 June 1566–27 March 1625) was a King who ruled over England, Scotland and Ireland, and was the first Sovereign to reign in the three realms simultaneously. ...

"towards the whole of the hull of the pinnace, and all her rigging, I received only £100 from the Lord Zouche, the rest Sir Henry Mainwaring (half-brother to Raleigh) cunningly received on my behalf, without my knowledge, which I never got from him but by piecemeal, so that by the bargain I was loser £100 at least." About 1578 he married his cousin Eleanor Zouche, daughter of Sir John Zouche and Eleanor, née Whalley. They had two daughters, Elizabeth and Mary, and lived apart after 1582. Her father, Sir John Zouche, wrote to Lord Burghley complaining of her treatment: "My Lord Souche [sic] put away this his lady twenty-nine years ago and refusing her all allowance was by law sentenced there-unto, which he not performing was excomunicate; from which he went beyond sea and returning was ordered to pay her 50s the week, from which poor allowance with a small addition from her friends hath this Baron's wife...ever since lived. She was oft dangerously sick that physic was chargeable. He never disbursed a penny, and now dead she might have rotted in her chamber ere he would have buried her." She was buried in April, 1611, and about six months later Edward married Sarah, daughter of Sir James Harington, and formerly wife of Francis Hastings, styled Lord Hastings, and of Sir George Kingsmill. There were no children of this marriage, and on his death the Barony of Zouche fell into abeyance between his daughter Mary and the heirs of his daughter Elizabeth, the abeyance being terminated in 1815 in favor of Sir Cecil Bisshopp, 12th Baron Zouche.
