Thomas Plunket (Chief Justice)
Sir Thomas Plunket (c.1440–1519) was a wealthy Irish landowner, lawyer and judge in fifteenth-century and early sixteenth-century Ireland. He held office as Chief Baron of the Irish Exchequer and Chief Justice of the Irish Common Pleas. After 1485 his loyalty to the new Tudor dynasty was deeply suspect, and he was involved in two attempts to put a pretender on the English throne. On each occasion he was disgraced, fined and removed from office; yet he had sufficient influence to ensure his return to favour and high office.
He is principally remembered as the builder of the impressive Dunsoghly Castle, at Finglas, which still exists. He should not be confused with his uncle, Sir Thomas Fitz-Christopher Plunket.〔Ball, F. Elrington ''The Judges in Ireland 1221–1921'' London John Murray 1926 Vol.1 p.186〕
==Family==
He was born in County Meath, the only son of Sir Robert Plunket, who served briefly as Lord Chief Justice of Ireland in 1447, and his wife Genet Finglas.〔Ball 1926 p.186〕 Robert was the fourth of the seven sons of Sir Christopher Plunket, who married the Cusack heiress and was created 1st Baron Killeen in about 1426. Thomas was "bred to the law": his uncle Thomas was also Lord Chief Justice, and his family produced six senior judges over four generations.
