Robert Rowlette
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
Dr Robert James Rowlette (died 13th October 1944), was an Irish doctor and an independent Teachta Dála (TD) in the Irish Free State. He was later a member of Seanad Éireann
He was elected to the 8th Dáil for the Dublin University constituency in a by-election on 13th October 1933, following the death of sitting TD Professor Sir James Craig.
In 1937, the University constituencies were transferred to Seanad Éireann, and Rowlette was then elected for three successive terms, to the 2nd, 3rd and 4th Seanads. (The pre-1937 Free State Seanad is deemed to be the first Seanad).
