The High Sheriff of Mayo was the British Crown's judicial representative in County Mayo, Ireland from the 16th century until 1922, when the office was abolished in the new Free State and replaced by the office of Mayo 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 Mayo unless stated otherwise. ==High Sheriffs of County Mayo== *1583: John Brown (1st High Sheriff) *1587–1589: John Brown (killed Mar 1589) *1639: Sir Henry Bingham, 1st Baronet〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title= The Peerage )〕 *1641: John Garvey *1655: Edward Ormsby of Tobervaddy Castle *1656: Sir Arthur Gore, 1st Baronet〔 *1662: Hon Sir Lucas Dillon〔 *1662: Sir George Bingham, 2nd Baronet〔 *1670: Sir Arthur Gore, 1st Baronet *1678: Sir George Bingham, 2nd Baronet〔 *1684: Sir Henry Bingham, 3rd Baronet〔 *1690: George Browne〔 *1694: Sir Henry Bingham, 3rd Baronet〔 *1703: Egbert Miller of Milford〔 *1708: Sir Arthur Shaen, 2nd Baronet〔(【引用サイトリンク】Uaisle Artúr Séan – Sir Arthur Shaen )〕 *1711: Sir Arthur Gore, 2nd Baronet〔 *1718: Francis Knox of Moyne Abbey〔A genealogical and heraldic history of the landed gentry of Ireland〕 *1721: Sir John Bingham, 5th Baronet〔 *1723: James Gildea of Gallagh and Port Royal〔 *1731: John Browne, 1st Earl of Altamont〔 *1732–1733: Arthur Knox of Castle Rea〔 Google Books〕 *1735: Robert Miller of Milford〔 Google Books〕 *1745: Thomas Lewin of Cloghans〔 *1747: Sir George Browne, 6th Baronet〔 *1748: *1750: Crosdaile Miller of Milford〔 *1755: Roger Palmer, later Sir Roger Palmer, 1st Baronet of Castlelacken〔Complete Baronetage, p.390〕 *1756: Charles Bingham, 1st Earl of Lucan〔 *1756: Crosdaile Miller〔 *1758: James Knox of Moyne Abbey〔 *1763: John Knox of Castlerea〔 (son of Arthur, HS 1733) *1765: Arthur Saunders Gore, 2nd Earl of Arran of the Arran Islands〔 *1766: *1776: Neale O'Donnell,later Sir Neale O'Donnell, 1st Baronet of Newport *1778: John Browne, 1st Baron Kilmaine〔 *1779: John Denis Browne, 1st Marquess of Sligo〔 *1781: Valentine Blake〔 *1782: Charles Costelio of Edmondstown *1783: John Ormsby of Gortnarabby *1784: George Jackson, the younger, of Prospect *1785: Charles Atkinson of Rehins *1786: Hon.
