Baron Tyrawley

From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia

Baron Tyrawley is a title that has been created twice, both times in the Peerage of Ireland. The first creation came in 1706 in favour of Sir Charles O'Hara. His son James O'Hara had already been created Baron Kilmaine in the Peerage of Ireland in 1722 when he succeeded his father in the Barony of Tyrawley two years later. However, both titles became extinct on his death in 1774.

The next creation came in 1797 in favour of James Cuffe. He sat in the House of Lords from 1800 to 1821 as on of the 28 original Irish Representative Peers. However, on his death in 1821 this title became extinct as well.
