William FitzWilliam, 3rd Viscount FitzWilliam
William FitzWilliam, 3rd Viscount FitzWilliam (c.1610–1670) was an Irish nobleman of the Stuart era. He fought on the Royalist side during the English Civil War, but later made his peace with the Cromwellian regime. In his later years he openly professed the Roman Catholic faith.
==Background==
He was born at Merrion Castle, in present day Mount Merrion, Dublin, youngest son of Thomas FitzWilliam, 1st Viscount FitzWilliam and Margaret Plunkett, daughter of Oliver Plunkett, 4th Baron Louth.〔Lodge, Edmund ''Genealogy of the Existing British Peerage'' Saunders and Otley 1832 p.152〕 The FitzWilliam family are recorded in Ireland from about 1210 and by the seventeenth century had become among the largest landowners in Dublin. They had a record of loyalty to the English Crown, and the viscountcy was conferred in 1629 by Charles I in recognition of their services. The title did not come cheap since the Crown expected financial help in return, and the estates were mortgaged in the 1630s to cover the cost of the gifts to the Crown.〔Ball, p.12〕
