This is taken from an online book which has significant gaps in the period covered. It may be the case that Cork student applied from an English address. Until into the 19th century there was an obligation on Irish Law Students to attend on of the Inns of Court in London (Middle Temple, Inner Temple, Linloln’s Inn, Grey’s Inns) before qualifying as a barrister.

This list is incorporated into a listing of Cork Lawyers. In the period pre 1700 names of a Norman background feature, Barry, Fitzgerald, Nagle, Roche and old Cork families Galweys (the great survivors) and Coppingers (Danish descent) the odd Gaelic name Kearney. After the settler names predominate as well as Gaelic Irish who may have made their money in business or held onto land or converted. A pattern emerges as law being a genetic inheritance, many of the same names recur over generations.
