17th century 'Warden'
Can anyone pse tell me if the title 'Warden' in 1603 could have meant anything
other than a churchwarden ? |

In conection with anything in particular?
There was the Warden of the Guards, Warden of the Cinque Ports etc, It's the same root as guardian, so suggests someone in charge of something with responsibility for safeguarding it.

Thanks,Phoenix - shortly after posting I found a ref to someone else being a warden in the same company, so it seems you're right.
