Sir John Bernard Burke, CB (5 January 1814 – 12 December 1892) was a British genealogist and Ulster King of Arms, who helped publish ''Burke's Peerage''. ==Personal life== Burke, of Irish descent, was born at London and was educated in London and France. His father, John Burke (1787–1848) was also a notable genealogist who first produced, in 1826, a ''Genealogical and Heraldic Dictionary of the Peerage and Baronetage of the United Kingdom''. This work, generally known as ''Burke's Peerage'', was issued annually starting in 1847. While practising as a barrister Bernard Burke assisted his father in his genealogical work, including the two volumes entitled ''The Royal Families of England, Scotland, and Wales, with their Descendants'' &c., which were not published until after his father's death (volume 1 in 1848, volume 2 in 1851), following which he took control of his publications. In 1853 Burke was appointed Ulster King of Arms. In 1854 he was knighted and in 1855 he became Keeper of the State Papers in Ireland. After having devoted his life to genealogical studies he died in Dublin on 12 December 1892. He was succeeded as editor of ''Burke's Peerage and Landed Gentry'' by his fourth son, Ashworth Peter Burke. Continuing his strong family tradition of genealogy and heraldry, another of Burke's sons, Sir Henry Farnham Burke, would eventually attain the office of Garter Principal King of Arms.
