John Cornwalsh : ウィキペディア英語版 | John Cornwalsh Sir John Cornwalsh (died 1472) was an Irish judge who held the office of Chief Baron of the Irish Exchequer. His tenure was notable for the fact that he succeeded his father in the office, and for his long struggle with a rival claimant, Michael Gryffin. == Background == He was probably born at Dunboyne in County Meath and later resided at Dardistown in the same county. He was the son of James Cornwalsh and Matilda Rochfort; the Cornwalsh family were originally from Cornwall. His father was Chief Baron, with intervals, from 1420 to 1441. John followed his father into the legal profession and went to London to study law; he was living at Tower Hill in 1434.〔Ball, F. Elrington ''The Judges in Ireland 1221-1921'' London John Murray 1926 Vol.1 p.178〕 He is next heard of "fighting the King's enemies in Ossory" in 1441.〔Ball, p.178〕 In September of that year his father was murdered by William Fitzwilliam and his wife Ismay, in a feud over possession of Baggotrath Castle near Dublin; the fact that Fitzwilliam and Ismay received a royal pardon for the crime gives some idea of the lawless condition of Ireland at the time.
