In 1563 he was elected from Hastings, to a parliament which was not dissolved until 1567. In June 1553, Damsell signed Edward VI's "devise for the succession". Despite this, he was knighted by Queen Mary on 2 October 1553, following her coronation, and was later appointed Receiver-General of the Court of Wards and Liveries.Also in 1553, Damsell bought Wye College, in Kent, from Sir Maurice DenysStephen Batman's The Travayled Pylgrime (1569), a verse translation of Olivier de la Marche's poem le Chevalier délibéré (1483), was dedicated to "Sir Wm.
