Total number 298 of whom 258 active. Compiled by J Chatterston, Clerk of Peace, Co. Cork, 1836. Looking at the list the vast majority are Protestants, in a County which was probably 85% Catholic, some of local families originally Catholic who converted and a small few Catholic. Apart from Landowners many are Church of Ireland clergy. At that time it was the State Church and the clergy performed many civic functions.

Cork barristers, Sir William Foster Stawell (1815-89), Oldcourt Co. Cork to Attorney General and Chief Justice, Melbourne, Redmond Barry (1815-89), Ballyclough, Co. Cork Chief Justice, Victoria, 40 hats on the Munster Circuit 1842 and not enough work for 20, and the development of Australian Legal Infrastructure

The Stawells were established in the Kinsale area from the early 17th century. He was a nephew of Foster Speaker of the Irish Parliament, Chancellor the Irish Exchequer and a Pro Bono Commissioner of Bogs in the 1820s.

The Barry were in Cork from the 12th century in the eastern part of the county.

Both Barry and Stawell were friendly and came from large families. Opportunities for professional advancement in Cork and Ireland were limited at the time. Various reports credited them with probity, diligence and energy both in the administration of Justice and in the wider world of public works and the arts.

Cork Lawyers:

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.

Gillman’s Index to Wills Cork and Ross is available online in Cork ad present;

However the collection of Dr. Casey Vol 6 seems to contain many more including those of old Gaelic families who were dispossessed in the 17th century but whose wills in the early 17th century suggest some residual wealth. Some from the Bantry area are included here. Some of the spellings of names are to us archaic as are townland and placenames this is an attempt to regularise at times educated guesswork:
