William Burgh, or de Burgh, was born in 1741 to Thomas Burgh of Bert (1696–1754), Member or Parliament for Lanesborough and landowner in County Kildare, Ireland, and his wife Anne (1709–1801), whom he married in 1731. Anne was the daughter of Dive Downes (1653–1709), Bishop of Cork and Ross and Catherine Fitzgerald, daughter of Robert FitzGerald and granddaughter of George FitzGerald, 16th Earl of Kildare. William's grandfather, William de Burgh of Bert MP (died 1744) was Comptroller and Accountant General for Ireland, and a brother of the prominent architect, Colonel Thomas de Burgh of Oldtown, MP (who built Trinity College Library, Dublin). He was a descendant of William de Burgh who first settled in Ireland in 1185.〔Burke, E. ''The Landed Gentry of Ireland'', London 〕
