Jonah Barrington (judge)

Sir Jonah Barrington (born at Knapton, Abbeyleix 1760; died at Versailles, France on 8 April 1834), was one of no fewer than sixteen children; six at least, and probably seven, were sons of John Barrington, a landowner in County Laois.
An Irish lawyer, judge and politician, he is most notable for his amusing and popular memoirs of life in late 18th-century Ireland; for his opposition to the Act of Union in 1800; and for his removal from the judiciary by both Houses of the Parliament in 1830, still a unique event.〔(Ricorso )〕
==Public life==
Barrington was educated at Trinity College Dublin and was called to the Irish bar in 1788, taking silk in 1793. He was appointed an Admiralty court judge in 1798.
He joined the Irish Volunteers and supported the Irish Patriots in the early 1780s.〔(Memoirs, chapter 7 )〕 His father raised and commanded two Corps; the Cullenagh Rangers and the Ballyroan Light Infantry. Barrington's elder brother commanded both the Kilkenny Horse and the Durrow Light Dragoons. Barrington's father, through his correspondence with General Hunt Walsh, then secured him a commission in Walsh's regiment. Upon learning that the regiment was to be sent to America to fight in the ongoing conflict, and fearful of dying on some foreign battlefield, Barrington wrote to Walsh asking him to instead present the commission to another candidate, claiming that he himself was too tender to be of any real use. Barrington's fears would prove somewhat well founded when his replacement, the only child of one of Walsh's friends, was killed in his first engagement.
In the pre-1801 Parliament of Ireland he was MP for Tuam by purchase of the seat in 1790–97, and then MP for Clogher in 1798. He received a sinecure post worth £1,000p.a. in 1793, generally supporting Henry Grattan. He re-entered parliament in 1798 and voted against the Act of Union in 1799–1800, rejecting Lord Clare's offer of the solicitor-generalship in 1799. He later unsuccessfully contested a seat in the UK parliament for Dublin in 1802. His career as a judge led to a knighthood in 1807.
Barrington was a member of the Kildare Street Club in Dublin.〔Thomas Hay Sweet Escott, ''Club Makers and Club Members'' (1913), (pp. 329–333 )〕
