Trivia

Children: Anne (29 July 1646), Mary (25 October 1648), John (16 March 1651 - June 1652), Deborah (2 May 1652) by Mary Powell; Katherine (19 October 1657 - 17 March 1658) by Katherine Woodcock.

He was fully blind before the publication of "Paradise Lost."

The John Milton Society For The Blind was founded in 1928 by Helen Keller to develop an interdenominational ministry that would bring spiritual guidance and religious literature to deaf and blind persons.

His grandfather was a composer who contributed to a collection of madrigals in honor of Queen Elizabeth I.

One month after he married Mary Powell, she visited her family and didn't return until 1645. In 1646, her family, having been ejected from Oxford as Royalist (those who supported King Charles I in the Civil War), moved in with Milton (who supported Oliver Cromwell).

Secretary for Foreign Tongues and official propagandist for the Commonwealth, Milton privately broke with Cromwell when he declared himself Lord Protector. He would have been executed after his arrest in October 1659 were it not for several influential people speaking on his behalf, including poet Andrew Marvell, his first assistant. King Charles II decided to spare Milton, and he was released that 15 December.

The John Milton Society For The Blind was founded in 1928 by Helen Keller to develop an interdenominational ministry that would bring spiritual guidance and religious literature to deaf and blind persons.
