Peter Stubbers, Mayor of Galway, fl. 1654. Colonel Stubbers was the first non-Tribal Mayor of Galway. The old corporation was forcibly dissolved in October 1654 and Colonel Stubbers, as one of the leading Cromwellian officers of the town's occupiers, became Mayor. He also seized Mayor Lynch's splendid house, now the King's Head pub. His neighbour to the rear Richard Gunning, thought to have executed King Charles I, but local historians believe the actual culprit to have been Stubbers himself. After The Restoration, Stubbers disappeared, though it is now known that he lived quietly on family estates in County Louth, where he died about 1685. ==References== *''"History of Galway"'', James Hardiman, 1820 *''"Old Galway"'', Maureen Donovan O'Sullivan, 1942 *''The Tribes of Galway"'', Adrian J.
