Theobald Butler (solicitor–general) : ウィキペディア英語版 | Theobald Butler (solicitor–general) Sir Theobald (Toby) Butler (1650-1720) was a leading barrister and politician in late seventeenth-century Ireland, who held office as Solicitor General for Ireland. He is mainly remembered for framing the articles of the Treaty of Limerick, and for his eloquent plea to the Irish House of Commons against the Popery Act of 1703, which allowed any Protestant son of a Roman Catholic to debar his Catholic brothers from inheriting the family property.〔''Burke's Irish Family Records'' London 1976 p.193〕 He was a much loved figure in Dublin, and his great popularity shielded him from any possible harm which he might have suffered from his religious beliefs. ==Family==
He was born at Boytonrath, County Tipperary, a younger son of James and Mary Butler.〔Burke p.193〕 The various branches of the Butler dynasty were much intermarried: James belonged to the branch of the family which was headed by the Baron Dunboyne, while Mary was probably a granddaughter of Walter Butler, 11th Earl of Ormonde.〔Butler p.113〕 In the turmoil following the Irish Rebellion of 1641 the family temporarily lost possession of Boytonrath, and settled at Ballyline near Ennis in County Clare, where Toby grew up.〔Butler p.114〕
