He was born in England and was the son of Richard Whitelocke, a London merchant, was born on the 28th of November 1570.
Educated at Merchant Taylors' School, London, and at St John's College, Oxford, he became a fellow of his college and a barrister.
He was then engaged in managing the estates belonging to St John's College, Eton College and Westminster College, before he became recorder of Woodstock and member of parliament for the borough in 1610.
In 1620 Whitelocke was made chief justice of the court of session of the county palatine of Chester, and was knighted; in 1624 he was appointed justice of the court of king's bench.
He died at Fawley Court, near Reading, an estate which he had bought in 1616, on the 22nd of June 1632.
He was imprisoned because he was suspected of being concerned in the Gunpowder Plot, and although he was most probably innocent, he remained for some time in the Tower of London. The soldier John Whitelocke (1757 - 1833) was doubtless a descendant of Sir James Whitelocke.
He entered the army in 1778 and served in Jamaica and in San Domingo.
An attack on the city was stubbornly resisted, and then Whitelocke concluded an arrangement with the opposing general by which he abandoned the undertaking. This proceeding was regarded with great disfavour both by the soldiers and others in South America and in England, and its author was brought before a court-martial in 1808.
On all the charges except one he was found guilty and he was dismissed from the service.
He lived in retirement until his death on the 23rd of October 1833.
