Alexander Fitton
Sir Alexander Fitton (1630? – 1698) sometimes known as Baron Gawsworth, was an Irish barrister and judge, who became Lord Chancellor of Ireland despite having spent many years in prison for criminal libel.
== Family and early career ==
Fitton was the eldest son of William Fitton of Awrice, County Limerick and his wife Eva Trevor, daughter of Sir Edward Trevor of Denbighshire. He was the great-grandson of Sir Edward Fitton, Vice-Treasurer of Ireland. The Irish Fittons were a junior branch of the Fittons of Gawsworth Old Hall, Cheshire; the dispute over the ownership of Gawsworth was to pre-occupy Alexander for most of his life. He married Anne Joliffe, daughter of Thomas Joliffe of Worcestershire and they had one surviving daughter; Anne died in 1687.
He entered Gray's Inn in 1654 and the Inner Temple in 1655; he was called to the Bar in 1662. Since he quickly became embroiled in the Gawsworth inheritance claim, it is unclear if he ever practised as a barrister, which later led to questions about his suitablity for judicial office, quite apart from his criminal conviction.
