The High Sheriff of Carlow was the British Crown's judicial representative in County Carlow, Ireland from the 14th century until 1922, when the office was abolished in the new Free State and replaced by the office of Carlow County Sheriff. The sheriff had judicial, electoral, ceremonial and administrative functions and executed High Court Writs. In 1908, an Order in Council made the Lord-Lieutenant the Sovereign's prime representative in a county and reduced the High Sheriff's precedence. However the sheriff retained his responsibilities for the preservation of law and order in the county. The usual procedure for appointing the sheriff from 1660 onwards was that three persons were nominated at the beginning of each year from the county and the Lord Lieutenant then appointed his choice as High Sheriff for the remainder of the year. Often the other nominees were appointed as under-sheriffs. Sometimes a sheriff did not fulfil his entire term through death or other event and another sheriff was then appointed for the remainder of the year. The dates given hereunder are the dates of appointment. All addresses are in County Carlow unless stated otherwise. == High Sheriffs of County Carlow== *1374 Geoffrey Vale〔''Patent Roll 48 Edward III''〕 *1583: George Carew, 1st Earl of Totnes *1612: Sir Thomas Butler, 1st Baronet of Cloughgrenan〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= The Peerage )〕 *1619: Nicholas Harman of Carlow〔A genealogical and heraldic history of the landed gentry of Ireland, 1912, Bernard Burke〕 *1622: Sir Thomas Butler, 1st Baronet of Cloughgrenan〔 *1641: Edward Butler *1650: Henry Prittie〔 *1662: Thomas Burdett of Dunmore〔Complete Baronetage, p.345〕 *1670: Sir Thomas Butler, 3rd Baronet〔 *1686: William Brereton〔 *1691: Sir Thomas Butler, 3rd Baronet〔 *1695: Benjamin Bunbury of Killerig *1700: Urban Vigors *1701: Sir Thomas Burdett, 1st Baronet of Garryhill〔 *1706: George Brereton〔 *1708: Thomas Bernard of Oldtown and Clonmulsh〔 *1714: Richard Vigors〔 Google Books〕 *1718: Benjamin Bunbury *1718: Charles Bernard of Bernard's Grove〔 *1724: Samuel Burton of Burton Hall, Carlow〔 *1725: Richard Wolseley *1730: Joseph Bernard of Straw Hill〔 *1730: Robert Burton〔 *1733: Denny Cuffe *1736: Benjamin Burton of Burton Hall, Carlow〔 *1737: William Brereton〔 *1743: I.
