Baron Trimlestown

Baron Trimlestown

Baron Trimlestown, or Trimleston, of Trimlestown in the County of Meath, is a title in the Peerage of Ireland. It was created in 1461 for Sir Robert Barnewall. He was the son of Nicholas Barnewall, Chief Justice of the Irish Common Pleas, and the grandson of Sir Christopher Barnewall, Chief Justice of the King’s Bench in Ireland. His son, the second Baron, was implicated in the Lambert Simnel conspiracy, but received a pardon in 1488. His son, the third Baron, served as Lord Chancellor of Ireland from 1534 until his death in 1538. The barony became dormant on the death of his great-great-great-great-great-great-great-grandson, the sixteenth Baron, in 1879. In 1891 the peerage was claimed by Christopher Patrick Mary Barnewall (de jure 17th Baron Trimlestown), a descendant of Hon. Patrick Barnewall, second son of the seventh Baron. He died before he had fully established his claim, but in 1893 his younger brother Charles Aloysius Barnewall was confirmed in the title by the Committee for Privileges of the House of Lords. As of 2007 the title is held by the latter's grandson, the 21st Baron, who succeeded his elder brother in 1997.

The Viscounts Barnewall were members of another branch of the Barnewall family.
