Earl of Ormonde (Irish)

Earl of Ormonde (Irish)

"For the titles in the Peerage of Scotland see: Earl of Ormonde (Scottish)"

The peerage titles Earl, Marquess and Duke of Ormonde have a long and complex history. An earldom of Ormonde has been created three times in the Peerage of Ireland. It was originally created in 1328 for James Butler. The fifth earl was created Earl of Wiltshire (1449) in the Peerage of England, but he was attainted in 1461 and his peerages were declared forfeit. The earldom of Ormonde was restored to the sixth earl, John Butler, but returned to the crown on the death of the seventh earl.

It was next created in 1529 for Thomas Boleyn, a maternal grandson of the 7th Earl. Through his daughter, Anne Boleyn, he was the grandfather of Elizabeth I, and he was also created Earl of Wiltshire in the Peerage of England. On his death these peerages became extinct.

The third creation was for Piers Butler, a cousin of the 7th Earl, in 1538. The fifth earl of this creation was made "Marquess of Ormonde" (1642) and "Duke of Ormonde" (1660) in the Peerage of Ireland, and "Duke of Ormonde" (1682) in the Peerage of England. Subsidiary titles for the duke were "Earl of Brecknock" (1660) and "Baron Butler" (1660) in the Peerage of England and "Earl of Ormonde" (1328), "Earl of Ossory" (1538) and "Viscount Thurles" (1536) in the Peerage of Ireland. In 1715 the second duke was attainted and his English peerages declared forfeit. In 1758 the de jure third duke (Irish) died and the dukedom and marquessate became extinct. The eleventh earl was created the "Marquess of Ormonde" in the Peerage of Ireland in 1816, on his death that title became extinct and the earldoms passed to his brother, for whom the title Marquess of Ormonde was created in the Peerage of the United Kingdom in 1825. That title became extinct in 1997, while the earldom became dormant.

The Earldom was twice created in the Peerage of Scotland.

Earldoms of Ormonde and Ossory (1328/1538, Rev.)

The presumed successors of the 7th marquess in the Earldoms of Ormonde and Ossory have been the 17th and 18th Viscount Mountgarret, descending in the male line from a younger son of the 8th Earl, but the claim has not been proven, because there is still the chance of possible male descendants of sons of the 9th earl.
