But, before detailing the Irish branch of the family, a quick survey of the WARBURTON's of Arley, in Cheshire, might be in order; and in particular, the remaining evidence, if any, of the rather massive £8,000 royal "loan."
The Herald's Visitation of Cheshire, 1613, recorded a pedigree for WARBURTON of Arley, which appears below, with additional details from JOHNSON and KIMBER's "Baronetage of England," Volume 2, at page 54, Rev William BETHAM's "The Baronetage of England, or The history of the English Baronets," Volume 2 [London, 1802, at pages 105-107] , and some editions of BURKE's series of "Landed Gentry" volumes:

Further, there is a pedigree on Wikipedia, which records the following (as yet not fully corroborated) details:
Peter WARBURTON, born in 1588, eldest son of Peter WARBURTON of Hefferston GRANGE, Cheshire (and grandson of Sir Peter WARBURTON of Arley), by Magdalen MOULTEN, daughter of Robert MOULTON of St Albans, Wood Street, London; he died in 1666 (aged 78); he was educated at Oxford (Brasenose College), 1604-06, and became an English Barrister and Judge, who was married to Alice GARDENER, with issue a son Robert WARBURTON.

A "FORCED" LOAN TO KING CHARLES.
Richard CUST, in his "Charles I, the Privy Council, and the Forced Loan" [Journal of British Studies, Volume 24, Number 2, at page 208-235, courtesy of JStor], wrote:
"The forced loan of 1626-27 has traditionally been regarded as one of the milestones of early 17th century politics. The great 19th century historian S.R. GARDINER saw it as the product of the 'new counsels' by which Charles I came increasingly to rely on the royal prerogative, and he depicted the opposition to this as principled defence of the Englishman's liberties... Thus the loan has been presented as the climax to a first stage of struggle between 'court' and 'country' or as a staging post on the 'high road to Civil War'...
"In origins the Forced Loan was a response to Christian of Denmark's defeat at the Battle of Lutter. News of this reached England on 11 September 1626, and caused the king to act immediately. He cut short his summer progress and hurried back to London, where... he assured the Danish Ambassador 'that he would render his uncle every assistance'...
"The council responded promptly... (and) came up with a proposal to send 4,000 troops to Denmark, financed by a loan from the king's subjects.
"The Forced Loan was thus, ultimately, born out of a foreign political crisis and the urgent need for funds that this had created. However, there was more to the decision to collect alone simply than this. The official reason given - 'tyme not admitting the way of Parliament'- implied that the council had no choice in the matter...."
Oliver CROMWELL (1599-1658) would make his first entry into Parliament shortly afterwards, in March 1628, as the Member for Huntingdon.
Antonia FRASER ["CROMWELL, Our Chief of Men," (Methuen) London, 1985, page 32], has noted that in 1627,
"... certain members of Parliament had suffered imprisonment rather than subscribe to the king's financial expedient - the Forced Loan - and these prisoners had included six of CROMWELL's relations."
So, from the outset of his interrupted political career, CROMWELL was firmly associated with opposition to the King, and as a Puritan, particularly so, on the matter of Religion. And by early 1629, he was, inevitably, among those who refused to adjourn at the King's command until the House had voted on a resolution condemning popery and illegal subsidies. Charles dissolved that Parliament, the third in his short reign, in March 1629.
It would appear likely that the WARBURTON family may well have been among those who obliged the king, and duly "paid" up their "forced loan" - indeed, it may well be matters relating to this loan which were not finally resolved until 1635, and in Dublin, with an Edict resulting inevitably from the outcome of a Case heard in the High Court of Chancery (see below).
And if this was the case, then it seems apparent that the WARBURTONs would naturally have been on the other side of the then emerging political divide in the early years of King Charles's reign.
The next Parliament was not summoned until April 1640. CROMWELL, having retired to the country in the interim, did not appear to have overtly engaged in political activity during this time. So whether the supposed perception that the WARBURTON sons were "active loyalists" (see next below) who were forced to leave Lancashire was due to any particular activity of CROMWELL himself would appear to be unlikely.
______________________________________________
A ROYAL LOAN, AND A CHANCERY DECREE OF 1635.
BURKE, in his "History of the Landed Gentry," 1847 [Volume 2, Page 1511], recorded that John WARBURTON, Esq,
"... advanced £8,000 to Charles I in his necessity," and that he
"... went to Ireland, where he married and had a son Richard."
This John WARBURTON was there recorded further as being the son of George WARBURTON of The Lodge, Crowley, and who was married to Miss HOLT of Stubley, in Lancashire, and had issue, including five sons who
"... were forced to leave Lancashire, being greatly persecuted by CROMWELL's party as known Loyalists" - and that the eldest two of them, George and John, went to Ireland.
Meanwhile, John WARBURTON's wife, with their younger children,
"... remained at the family seat, where their father lay for a long time in a cave, which was contrived to shelter him from the animosity of the party of parliament."
However, it was not George, or John, but a Richard WARBURTON whose name appears in Ireland, perhaps in 1622, probably by early 1629, but certainly by 1635, when he was mentioned as a Merchant.
A currency calculator, on the web-site of The National Archives, Kew, reckons that £8,000 in 1630 would be worth "approximately" £977,193 and 60 pence in today's money (or was that last week).
This was no small amount of money, and it would appear likely (to me) that it was probably well above what would have constituted a "reasonable" amount, even (or especially) for a "forced loan" in 1627-28.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Co-incidentally, another loan, of similar proportions, is mentioned in one of my other articles on this blog page, which I posted on 5 March 2015, entitled:
"Frances BARROW of Potterspury, Northamptonshire. Was she the wife of John COOKE the Regicide?"
In it, I refer to Sir Francis CRANE, who is named in a Deposition dated 1634, found among the holdings of the Northamptonshire Record Office [NRO, Reference Ph 35288], which mentioned a Mr Edward BARROES (BARROW), deceased, who had:
"... carried twoe loads of the like stone... from the honor howse of Grafton to Stoke lodge since Sir Francis CRANE came thither."
Edward was almost certainly the father of Frances BARROW (1620-1693) of Potterspury, who appears to have been married three times - firstly to John COOKE, the junior Barrister who was briefed by CROMWELL to prosecute the legal case against King Charles (and was subsequently executed as one of the Regicides in 1660 for his efforts); secondly to William PROCTOR of Falmouth Bay, Antigua (their daughter Frances PROCTOR was the wife of John PIGOTT of Kilcromin, Queen's County, who was possibly, but more likely an older brother of, my direct ancestor); and thirdly to Acquilla STOUGHTON of Antigua, whom she survived.
Also co-incidentally, when Edward BARROW died, his widow Elizabeth was re-married, to none other than Isaac COOKE, the widowered father of CROMWELL's prosecuting Barrister - which means that his son John COOKE was married to his father's now step-daughter, or to his own step-sister.
But back to the monetary matter in hand!
Sir Francis CRANE (1579-1636) was a highly successful Tapestry dealer and manufacturer in Mortlake, Surrey, and was a Member of Parliament; in 1628, he made a loan of £7,500 to the Crown (King Charles), with a parcel of the Honour of Grafton in Northamptonshire (an old Royal hunting demesne, used by Henry VIII) as security, which he would have if the loan principal was not repaid within two years (it evidently was not, as CRANE took possession of it).
The point of my mentioning this other loan here is to make the obvious comparison.
And given that the monetary amounts involved are both very large, and quite similar, I would be suspecting that the WARBURTON loan may also have been of the same vintage, time-wise - i.e., one of the larger "forced" loans of 1626-27-28. And if so, it should probably also have been similarly conditioned by a default position, probably also involving property as a security, if the repayment of it went into default.
Which may well have ended up being contested in the High Court of Chancery, and perhaps some years later (even as late as 1635), by the lender, or perhaps even by his heirs or assigns, and possibly even in Ireland?
Which might well admit a possibility that the 1635 Edict may have involved WARBURTON family members who were not the loan-maker, but one of his descendants.

HEFFERSTON, AND THE BETHAM PEDIGREE.
Sir William BETHAM filled the office of Ulster King of Arms, the Chief Herald in Ireland, from about 1830 till 1855. It was during his previous term, as Deputy to his predecessor, that he systematically made his celebrated "genealogically useful" abstracts (already mentioned above).
What we find in these Abstracts are a number of probate grants involving Cheshire WARBURTONs who, listed with English abodes, do not appear to have actually lived in Ireland, and so probably had acquired property interests there. BETHAM only abstracted this "genealogically useful" information, and did not identify property connections, other than to record an abode, if it was mentioned. All he really bothered himself with were peoples names and their stated relationship to the testator.
One of these abstracts related to the 1617 will of Peter WARBURTON of Hefferston Grange, evidently proved both in the P.C.I. in Dublin, and also in Cheshire. Inevitably, the Cheshire will (not yet sighted) should have much more detail in it than BETHAM's abstract.
Firstly, the non-residential WARBURTONs:
(1) "Isabel WARBURTON, of Carrington, in ye parish of Bowdon, Widow. 4 January 1607.
"Daughter Joan.
"Son Ewen W. Eliz.
" ---- John W.
" ---- Hannet W."
(2) "John WARBURTON, of Halton, in the parish of Eccles (Eigles in transcription), in Co Lanc., Husbandman. 5 August 1609.
"Wife Ellin.
"Son John W.
"Daughters Ellin, Dorothy, Eliz, Judith.
"Son John W. the younger, Esq."
(3) Robert WARBURTON, of Brough (obscure) Lyn, Husbandman. 18 January 14 James I, 1617.
"Wife Elizabeth.
"Sons Thomas, John, Robert, Francis and William.
"Thos W. of Ha...(obscure)."
(4) "Peter WARBURTON, of Hefferston Grange, Esq. 24 June 1617.
"Wife,
"1 son Peter W.
"4 son George W.
"2 son William W.
"3 son Thomas W.
"Cousin WARBURTON of Arley.
"Cousin Mary WILBRAHAM.
"1 daughter Mar...(obscure).
"2 daughter Theodosia.
" ------- GARNET.
" ------- Mary.
" ------- Bene (obscure)
"Brother William W."
(5) "Robert SOMERS, of London, Grocer. 19 February 1637.
"Daughter Theodosia.
"Sister Elizabeth JACKSON.
"Nephew Robert TWISLINGTON.
"Mother-in-law Magdalen WARBURTON.
"Brothers Peter, William, Thomas and George WARBURTON."
_ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _ _
Eventually, BETHAM, or his staff, used these abstracts to construct drop-line pedigrees, which were linked, where it appeared relevant, with others to form larger pedigrees, enhancing greatly the details of Armigerial families already on their files.
Not all of BETHAM's so constructed pedigrees are correct. And I may cite one he constructed for the English origins of my own Irish PIGOTT family ancestors as a case in point (see a separate post on this blog page).
But his efforts remain monumental, and his abstracts, now viewable on-line on the subscription web-site, Findmypast.co.uk, have attained the status of de-facto primary source material.
His Abstracts record the following pedigree of the Hefferson or Hefferston (Grange) branch of the WARBURTON family of Cheshire, and is the only one I find which includes a Richard WARBURTON associated with Ireland.
How accurate it is, is hard to say.
Firstly, no other published pedigree matches his information about Richard of Ireland.
And secondly, it does appear that modern DNA evidence indicates that the Irish WARBURTON's do not match the Cheshire branch descendants, so one or other branch would appear to have been the subject of a "non-paternal" event, as the quaint saying goes! See Ray WARBURTON's one-name study web-site.
But it does have some death dates, and that is a good start to see if we can establish where BETHAM may have derived his information:
Sir Peter WARBURTON, of Arley == Elizabeth, daughter of Richard WINNINGTON.

Here is Richard WARBURTON, "...of Ireland" - and with a death year, although the last digit of it was hard to make out - it was either a 9 or perhaps a 3 - which is clarified by another BETHAM Abstract which records that Richard WARBURTON was alive in 1665, when mentioned in the will of his brother-in-law Henry L'ESTRANGE of Moystown (and see further below):
Image copyright of the National Archives of Ireland, courtesy of the
Findmypast.co.uk subscription web-site, Betham's Abstracts.
This indicates that the obit date is more likely to be 1669. And this is in the right order of time for Richard the Dublin Merchant.
That year date must have cropped up somewhere in BETHAM's collected information.
BETHAM no doubt had a reason for attaching him to this pedigree - but what evidence he had is still anybody's guess.
Some of the other events mentioned in it can now be corroborated from other sources.
"London Marriage Licenses" [page 1410], recorded the following:
"WARBURTON, Peter, of Lincoln's Inn, Gent, bachelor, aged 30, and Magdalen MOULTON, spinster, of St Alban, Wood Street, daughter of Robert MOULTON, of same, Esq, by gen. lic. 1 February 1585-86."
[This alone creates a problem for BETHAM's pedigree - their second son William could scarcely have married much before 1609, which suggests that his third listed son Richard, if his, could not have been born much before 1611. Far to young for the 1622 mention by BURKE, and probably still too young for a successful merchant in 1631.]
"Lincoln's Inn Admission Register," Volume 1, 1420-1799, published at Lincoln's Inn, 1896, page 87:
"1578. Folio 48. December 9 - Peter WARBURTON, of Cheshire, late of New Inn."
BOYD's "Inhabitants of London" records the following family:
Robert SOMERS, Citizen and Grocer of London; died 1637, P.C.C. Will 1638; he was married by Cheshire Marriage License, 1626, to Theodosia WARBURTON, daughter of Peter WARBURTON and Magdalen MOULTON; they had issue:
1. Theodosia SOMERS; she was married to Peter WARBURTON, grandson of Peter WARBURTON. It would appear likely that these were the Peter WARBURTON and his wife Theodosia who were joint Plaintiffs in a Bill lodged in the Chancery Court, Dublin, 25 February 1668, to which the Defendant was Hugh MONTGOMERY, 2nd Earl of Mount Alexander, evidently a minor, and under the guardianship of Dame Jean, his probable paternal grandmother (see below).
2. Hester SOMERS; she was married to John WARBURTON, great-grandson of (ditto).
"Marriage Licenses granted within the Archdeaconry of Chester in the Diocese of Chester," Volume III, 1624-32, edited by William Fergusson IRVINE [The Record Society, 1909], at page 82:
"11 March 1625-26. Robert SOMERS of London, Grocer, and Theodosia WARBURTON, Spinster. At Weaverham, Cheshire."
BETHAM's Abstracts includes the following will details, presumably from a Prerogative Court of Ireland probate grant with will copy:
"Robert SOMERS, of London, Grocer; will dated or proved 19 February 1637, naming his daughter Theodosia, his sister Elizabeth JACKSON, his nephew Robert TWISLINGTON, his mother-in-law Magdalen WARBURTON, and his brothers (-in-law) Peter, William, Thomas and George WARBURTON."
That he also had his will proved in the Prerogative Court of Canterbury does indicate that he probably had property interests in both England and Ireland. The P.C.C. will transcript is more detailed, as follows:
"... I give and bequeath unto Thoedocia, my daughter, being her Orphanage Parts (?) according to the C... of the City of London, and I will and desire that my daughter shall and may inherit the lease of my estate...
"I give and bequeath to Robert TWISLINGTON my nephew... his brother Richard TWISLINGTON my nephew...
"I give and bequeath to my Sister Elizabeth JACKSON 50 pounds...
"Item, I give my mother-in-law Mrs Magdalen WARBURTON ten pounds to buy her a ring.
"Item, I give to my brother-in-law Peter WARBURTON Esq're ten pounds to buy him a ring.
"Item, I give to each of my three brothers-in-law William WARBURTON, Thomas WARBURTON and George WARBURTON tenn pounds apiece...
"... my late brother Thomas SHINSHAM (?), and Frances his late wife...
"Item, I give to my cosen Jeffery WARBURTON of Lower Loughton in the Countie of C'nt'y 25 pounds..."
And we can now see where that part of BETHAM's pedigree (the four brothers of Theodosia) came from. But there is no mention of a Richard WARBURTON.
THE WARBURTONS OF SHELTON, NOTTS.
William WARBURTON and Richard HURD, in their "The Works of the Right Reverend William WARBURTON, D.D., Lord Bishop of Gloucester" [Volume 1, London, 1811, at page 1], wrote:
"WILLIAM WARBURTON...
"Was descended from an antient and very considerable family in Cheshire.
"... his grandfather, of the same name, distinguished himself in the Civil Wars... of the Royal party, and showed his zeal and activity in that cause, by serving under Sir George BOOTH at the affair at Chester...
"All that I know of him is that he married Frances, daughter of Robert AWFIELD of Etson, in the County of Nottingham, by whom he had three sons, the second of whom, George, was Mr WARBURTON's father.
"It seems probable, that upon his marriage he moved into Nottinghamshire. His residence was at Shelton, a village about six miles from Newark, where he died."
And in the parish church of St Mary, at Shelton, there is a carved stone WARBURTON Coat-of-Arms inside the church, commemorating the burial there in 1669 of William WARBURTON, the Civil War Royalist.
He had resided at Shelton Manor from shortly after the Restoration - and that Manor was identified as having been part of the marriage settlements, dated 23 January 1578-79, for the marriage of Robert MARKHAM, of Cottham (or Cotteham), to Ann WARBURTON, daughter of Sir John and Dame Mary WARBURTON [www.nottsvillage.blogspot.com].
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
A synopsis of these settlements can be found in the on-line Discovery Index of The National Archives, Kew, for a holding in the Nottinghamshire Archives [Ref 157 DD/P/8/17], as follows:
Robert MARKHAM of Cottham, Esq (of the one part), Dame Mary WARBURTON, widow of Sir John WARBURTON (of the second part), and Sir Francis LEEKE, Peter WARBURTON of Arley, Co Chester, and Thomas MARKEHAM and Henry MAYNWARING of Carrinchum (possibly Carrington?), Co Chester (of the third part); (being settlements for the) marriage of Robert, son and heir of the said Robert MARKHAM, to Ann, daughter of the said Dame Mary WARBURTON (of Morton, Co Chester), and (concerning) the Manors of Cotteham, Great Markham, Shelton, Stoke near Newark, Maplebeckend of Claypoole, Co Lincs, all the property of the said Robert MARKHAM (senior)... (and other lands); all witnessed by John MARKEHAM, William MARKEHAM, George WARBURTON, Richard WARBURTON, Phillippe BELLOT, William DRAKEFIELD, Richard COKE and John SYDENHAM; (with an annexed) Feoffment naming Robert MARKHAM the father, Sir Francis LEEK, Peter WARBURTON and Thomas MARKHAM.
Robert MARKHAM Senior (1536-1606), of Cotham, was M.P. for Nottinghamshire and Grantham; he was married to Mary, daughter of Francis LEEK; their eldest son, Robert Junior, was born at Cotham in 1563.
Dame Mary WARBURTON's maiden surname was BRERETON; her daughter Ann died on 17 November 1601, and was buried at St Michael's Church, Cotham; her monument was later relocated to St Mary Magadalen church, Newark, Notts.
Robert MARKHAN Junior, her widower, was married secondly, in June 1602, to Winifred THOROLD; by Ann, he had issue five sons (the third was Daniel) and three daughters. There was no son named Nathaniel MARKHAM (see below).
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
However, an intriguing possibility emerges - as we shall see below, there was a Bill, dated November 1636, brought before the High Court of Chancery in Dublin, by Samuel RICHARDSON, Plaintiff, vs Nathaniel MARKHAM, Richard WARBURTON and John KENDALL, Defendants.
I am presuming it likely that this was our Richard WARBURTON, the Merchant of Dublin. It is not yet known whether there is any kinship connection between Robert and Nathaniel MARKHAM.
Indeed, it would be interesting to see the full case notes for the 1670 Bill at Kew, to ascertain whether Richard and Elizabeth are further identified, either by kinship with each other, or with the WARBURTONs of Shelton.
Several much later documents, held at The National Archives, at Kew, indexed as Chancery Bills, Six Clerks Office, may be relevant:
"Pleadings, COLLINS - GILL v WARBURTON. Plaintiffs: Robert GILL and Anne GILL his wife. Defendants: Richard WARBURTON, Elizabeth WARBURTON, Dormer WARBURTON and Bernard DEWHURST. Subject: Money matters. 1669. Two answers" [TNA, C 6/221/41].
And:
"Pleadings, WHITTINGTON - WARBURTON v. WARBURTON. Plaintiffs: Richard WARBURTON and Elizabeth WARBURTON. Defendants: Frances WARBURTON, Widow. Subject: Property in Shelton, Notts. Bill Only. 1670. Litigation" [TNA, C 10/491/187].
I had initially suspected that these two in 1670 were brother and sister versus Frances, the widow of the above William WARBURTON of Shelton. The arrangement of Defendants names in 1669 suggests that Richard and Elizabeth were unlikely to have been husband and wife.
In a book entitled "Literary Anecdotes of the Eighteenth Century; comprizing Biographical Memoirs of William BOYWER," by John NICHOLS, 1812, Volume 5, at page 529, under the heading of "No XI, BISHOP WARBURTON," is the following foot-note:
"The WARBURTONs are descended from Adam DUTTON, a younger son of Hugh, grandson of Hudard, or Odard, who came over with William the Conqueror. Sir Peter DUTTON, great-grandson of Adam, in the reign of King Edward the 2nd, settling at WARBURTON in Cheshire, assumed the name of his residence; and his descendants moved to Arley, where the family mansion was built by Peter WARBURTON, Esq, who died in 1495 (LYSONS 'Cheshire,' p. 361).
"Sir John WARBURTON, son of Peter, was one of the Knights of the Body of King Henry VII, Sheriff of Cheshire for life, and died in 1524. His son, John WARBURTON, who died in 1575, aet 52, had four sons, of whom Peter, the eldest, was called to the degree of sergeant-at-law in 1594, and one of the Judges of the Common Pleas in 1601. He died July 22, 1626, without male issue, but left nine daughters, one of whom, Alice, was married to her relation, Peter WARBURTON of Helperstone (sic) Grange, who was born in 1588, made one of the Justices of Cheshire by the Parliament in 1647, and afterwards one of the Justices of the Court of King's Bench. He died at Polsden, in Surrey, February 28, 1665-66, and was buried at Fetcham.
"Of his three sons, the two eldest died in infancy, and the youngest, Richard WARBURTON, Esq, of the Grange, married Elizabeth, daughter of Alderman BARKLEY of London... He died April 14, 1696, leaving one son, Dr WARBURTON, of Abbots Bromley, Staffs, and one daughter, Mary, second wife of Rev Matthew HENRY, celebrated Dissenting Minister..."
John AUBREY, in his "Natural History and Antiquities of the County of Surrey" [London, 1718, at page 262], recorded the following Monumental Inscription in Fetcham Church (or churchyard) in the Deanery of Stoke, on a black marble grave-stone:
PETER WARBURTON, OF HEFFERSTON
GRANGE, IN THE COUNTY PALATINE OF
CHESTER, ESQ. BORN THE 27. DAY OF
MARCH 1588. DYED THE 28TH DAY OF
FEBRUARY 1665.
CHRIST IS A CHRISTIAN'S ALL.
RESURRECTURUS.

RICHARD WARBURTON OF LONDON, A HABERDASHER.Richard (Richus) WARBORTON, was bound, 8 November 1611, as Apprentice to Thomas INCE, Master Haberdasher of London, the son of George WARBURTON, of Hulce, Cheshire, Gent [City of London, Haberdashers, Apprentice's Freedoms, 1526-1933, citing London Metropolitan Archives, Ref CLC/L/HA/C/011/MS 15860/004, image on Findmypast.co.uk].
Richard WARBURTON; his Freedom, Haberdasher's Company, 24 September 1619, Thomas INCE, Master [ditto].
Apprentices were traditionally bound at age 14, for a period of 7 years, by the end of which time they would have reached their majority. If Richard had followed this tradition, he would have been born around about the year 1597.
And Richard (Rico) WARBURTON, Master Haberdasher, of London, 13 September 1627, for the apprenticeship of Peter (Petrus) WARBURTON, son of George (Georgius) WARBURTON, of Boughton in Cheshire, Gent (Generosus), deceased (defunctus) [ditto].
It appears to me that this may well have been the Richard WARBURTON who went to Dublin, where, in February 1628(-29), he was named as Plaintiff in a Bill before the Chancery Court of Ireland, vs Thomas BOONE, Defendant.
And, in October 1631, as the Principal Creditor, he was granted the P.C.I. Administration of the Irish assets of William FAWCETT, Haberdasher of London, deceased (see next section below).
But probably not the last mentioned, if he was already in Dublin by 1622 (see ditto, although I am starting to think this date is unlikely).
William FAWCETT was bound in 1606 as apprentice to Thomas THORNTON, Master Haberdasher in London; in 1623, as Master Haberdasher, in London, he bound Jeoffry CARTWRIGHT as his apprentice.
And, it would appear that Jeffry CARTWRIGHT probably went to Dublin, and was in a mercantile partnership with a Mr WARBURTON at the time he made his will in 1636.
Of possible interest, there was a Richard WARBURTON baptised at Waverton, near Chester, 11 August 1595, a son of George WARBURTON [Familysearch.org]; a George WARBURTON was married at Great Budworth, 4 August 1584, to Elizabeth LITLETON [ditto]; and GENUKI records that Hulse was a township in the parish of Great Budworth, Hundred of Northwich, and Palatine County of Chester.
While none of these are necessarily relevant, there are, as the saying goes, so many coincidences here that they are starting to look a bit like something else!
And whilst we cannot yet claim this Haberdasher to be the Dublin settler, he remains a person of considerable interest!
____________________________________________
THE WARBURTONS OF GREAT BUDWORTH.
As mentioned above, George WARBURTON and Elizabeth LITLETON were married in Great Budworth parish church in 1584.
Another George WARBURTON, and his wife Elizabeth MYDDLETON were buried there - Sir George in May 1676, aged 56, and Elizabeth, his first wife, in 1650.
______________________________________________
RICHARD WARBURTON (GEN 1) OF DUBLIN.
As mentioned in the introduction above, John BURKE's Dictionary of the Landed Gentry (1847) mentions Richard WARBURTON of Dublin in 1622. BURKE did not source this detail - and it may simply have been part of his "received" version of WARBURTON family lore.
In the expectation that this "sighting" was of a man who had probably reached his majority, it suggests he was born about 1600, but probably considerably earlier.
And if he was the 1611 Haberdashers' Apprentice in London (see above), then he would probably have been born about 1595, give-or-take a year or two.
The earliest date I can find in surviving archived documents, or abstracts from them, is 10 February 1628(-29), when Richard WARBURTON was named as Plaintiff in a bill brought before the Court of Chancery, Dublin, to which the defendant was named as Thomas BOONE [Ireland, Court of Chancery Bill Books, 1627-1884, Dublin, on Findmypast.co.uk].
Richard WARBURTON, of Dublin, was granted Administration in the Prerogative Court of Ireland (P.C.I.), 14 October 1631, as Principal Creditor, to the Irish assets of William FAWCETT, of London, Haberdasher [BETHAM's Genealogical Abstracts, Findmypast]. This detail suggests that Richard may well have become FAWCETT's Creditor in London, rather than in Dublin?
Nathaniel MARKHAM and Richard WARBERTON were joint Plaintiffs in a Bill brought before the Court of Chancery, Dublin, 11 January 1635-36, the Defendant being John KENDALL.
Richard WARBURTON was the second of three Defendants in a Chancery Bill, entered in November 1636, by Samuel RICHARDSON, the Plaintiff - the other two Defendants being Nathaniel MARKHAM and John KENDALL; Answer of WARBURTON, 5 November; Answer of KENDALL 31 March 1637.
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Not much is recorded on family history web-sites concerning this, or any other Nathaniel MARKHAM of his vintage. One was a member of the Vintner's Company in London, and bound a number of Apprentices to him between 1612 and 1621. He was married at St Mary on the Hill, London, 19 January 1611(-12), to Mary COZENTON, with issue baptised there between November 1612 and June 1620. He appears to have left no further trace in London.
He, or another, is first mentioned in Dublin in 1631 (a Chancery Court Bill Book entry, and a separate BETHAM's Abstract); and he is named as a defendant in two Chancery Court Bills prosecuted by Dame Elizabeth SMITH in 1636 and 1637 [CROSSLE's Abstracts].
I find no mentions of his baptism in English records, so whether he was a descendant of Robert MARKHAM of Cottham, Notts, who was married in January 1580 to Ann WARBURTON, a daughter of Dame Mary (formerly BRERETON), the widow of Sir John WARBURTON of Arley, is not yet known. But, the possibility does exist. See above.
And if so, it does appear that the connection with Richard WARBURTON in litigation in Dublin may have been by kinship (unlikely on DNA evidence), or otherwise through the following Forced Royal Loan saga?
- - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - -
Richard WARBURTON, of Dublin, Merchant, was evidently named in a Chancery Decree, dated 8 February 1635(-36?), concerning a loan of £8,000 which had been made to King Charles.
I have not yet located the actual source for this information, although it is likely to have been mentioned in correspondence between Conrad SWAN, York Herald in Arms in Ordinary, London, and James Arthur WARBURTON (1890-1982), of Canada, during the 1970s or thereabouts.
In my view, the close proximity of these two dates does indicate that this February Decree was inevitably the result of the January Bill - but only if BETHAM mis-understood that the date was a Julian Calendar date.
Sir William BETHAM, who occupied the Office of the Chief Herald in Ireland (from about 1830 until his death, about 1855) further identified this Richard as the son of Peter WARBURTON of Hefferston Grange, by his wife Magdalen MOULTON.
Which appears unlikely, if he was the 1611 London Apprentice, identified as the son of George WARBURTON of Hulce (Hulse), Cheshire, Gent.
Richard WARBURTON was named as Defendant in a Chancery Bill, dated 17 January 1636-37, brought on by William DEERING; Mr FANSHAW (or NESHAW?) presiding.
Another London Haberdasher appears to have gone to Dublin. Jeffery CARTWRIGHT, of Dublin, Merchant, made his will (or it was proved P.C.I.) on 23 January 1636(-37?), naming his wife Elizabeth, his brother Richard CARTWRIGHT, his father-in-law George CANNING, his brother- and sister-in-law Paul and Ann CANNING, and "... his partner Mr WARBURTON" [BETHAM's Abstracts, Findmypast.co.uk]. I know of no other WARBURTONs in Ireland at that time.
This was undoubtedly the family which included Edward CANNING, mentioned in an old Irish debt involving Richard WARBURTON in 1646 (see below).
On 5 June 1640, Richard WARBURTON, as the Plaintiff, entered his Bill in the High Court of Chancery Court, Dublin, against Defendants James NUGENT, John DAVIS and James ARCHBOLD; AYSCOUGH (presiding); LAYTON (attorney); Answer of ARCHBOLD, 13 June.
In February 1641(-42), Richard WARBERTON was joint Defendant, with John BOOTH and John PERRY, in a case brought before the High Court of Chancery in Dublin by John NEWMAN the plaintiff; PARKINSON (presiding); EXHAM (attorney); there were no Answers.
In February 1642(-43), Richard WARBERTON, Bartholomew DROPE and John HILL, were Defendants in a Chancery Bill, entered 23 February 1642(-43) by Thomas BIRD and Thomas HARRALD, Plaintiffs; there were no Answers.
That there were no answers to the last two Bills is not inconsistent with Richard, as a defendant, being temporarily absent in England.

REBELLION BREAKS OUT IN IRELAND.
In late October 1641, Rebellion broke out in Ireland.
By April 1642, Commissioners, who had been appointed by the Government, began to investigate losses endured by loyal subjects at the hands of the Rebels, by taking witness statements, or depositions.
These have survived, as "The 1641 Depositions," now lodged in the Library of Trinity College, Dublin.
Richard WARBURTON, Merchant, was named in one of them, not as a deponent, but by one of his former servants, John LEWYS [transcript in on-line access - MS 810, folios 162r-162v], taken in Dublin, 29 April 1642:
"John LEWYS of the Cittie of Dublin, Merchant, late servant unto Richard WARBURTON, of the same place, merchant, sworne and examined, deposeth and sayth that he hath lived with the said Richard WARBURTON as a Journeyman for the space of foure years (last past) and upwards, and during that tyme hath beene, and now is, well apprised and acquainted with his shop, Bookes and Accompts, by which appeareth to be due unto him the said WARBURTON, as per the particular Accompts which this deponent verily beleeveth to be trewly wrytten and contrived, at the beginning of this presente Rebellion, and at this tyme, Sundry somms of money by divers persons within the kingdome of Ireland (which are eyther knowne by this deponent to be in actuall Rebellion, or otherwise are apprehended and imprisoned for the same, and the rest for very strong reasons is perswaded, are alsoe turned Rebells) Amounting unto the somme of Twelve hundred seaventy Eight pownds five shillings three pence.
"And by the same Accompts and Bookes appeareth to be dew unto him the said WARBURTON by divers other persons, whom this deponent beleeveth the Rebells have slayne, Robbed, dispoyled and made unable to satisfie, Amountinge unto the somme of fowre Thowsand Eigth hundred twenty fowre pownds and seaventeene shillings more.
"And by the same Accompts and bookes itt alsoe appeareth, that when the Rebellion began and this tyme divers persons within the Citty Dublin, and else-wheare which the Rebellion and theise misserable tymes have disabled to make sattisfaction as he conceiveth weare and are indebted unto the said Richard WARBURTON the somme of seaven hundred fiftie seaven pownds thirteen shillings and fowre pence more.
"And further sayth that the said Richard WARBURTON since the beginninge of the said insurreccion hath been and is by the Rebells (and by reason of this Rebellion) within the Countie of Dublin whose names he knoweth not, deprived, rob'd or otherwise, dispoyled or prejudict of his goods and Chattles in kishork (with arrearages of rent) Consistinge of Beasts, Cattle, howse hold stuffe and other Goods And unto the somme of one hundred pownds.
"And that the said Richard WARBURTON by meanes of the said Rebellion is deprived and dispoyled to his further loss in the lyinge wast and damage by his howses [end of folio 498 - start of folio 499] and shop, and by reason of the giving over and losse of the bennifitt of his Tradinge and by his estate and meanes lyinge out of his hands, with Transporting his wife and children into England, the somme of six hundred pownds more. In all Amountinge unto the somme of Seaven Thowsand five hundred and sixty pounds sterlinge or thereabouts.
"And this deponent further sayth that at the tyme of the begininge of this rebellion and at this instants tyme, sundry persons within the said kingdom of Ireland, whoe are wyther in Rebellion, or deprived of theyre estates by this Insurreccion are and stand indebted unto him this deponent severall somms of money ammountinge to the somme of one hundred thirty one pounds five shillings and Ten pence Sterling, and that by meanes of this Rebellion he hath lost his present imployment and bennifitt of his Tradinge by which, and for want of his money, he is likely to be dampfied one hundred pounds more at Least, Soe as his owne propper losses by means of this rebellion Amounteth unto the somme of 231 li. 5s. 10d. sterling.
"Per me John LEWYS.
"'Jurat: Apr 29o 1642.
"Hen. BRERETON.
"Roger PUTTOCKE."
This account was later abstracted by Annaleigh MARGEY, Eamon DARBY and Elaine MURPHY, in their book "The 1641 Depositions and the Irish Rebellion" [at page 68], under the sub-heading of "Merchant Debts Due and Oweing," with some spelling improvements, some numerical simplification, and an error or two:
"Similarly, John LEWYS, servant to the late Dublin Merchant, Richard WARBURTON, claimed that 'divers persons within the kingdom' known by the deponent to be in actual rebellion, or imprisoned for their part in it, owed his master £1,278 5s 3d. A further £4,824 17s more was owed by 'other persons' he believed the rebels had 'slayn, robbed and despoiled and made unable to satisfie.' In addition to this, he said, 'Persons within the citty of Dublin' were indebted to his master the further amount of £757 13s 4d...
"Likewise, LEWYS deposed that another £600 more was added to the debts listed (which amount to almost £7,000) 'by reason of the giving over and loss of the bennefitt of his Trading, and by his estate and means lyeing out of his hands, with Transporting his (WARBURTON's) wife and children into England'."
This abstract appeared, at first glance, to suggest that Richard was already dead.
But the full original version does not confirm that reading, the term "late" clearly applying to LEWYS's term of employment by WARBURTON, and not WARBURTON himself, or his career as a merchant (although he may by then have been "late" of Dublin); and the reference to his wife and children, (rather than "widow"), does indicate that Richard was still alive.
It is the only Deposition that mentions anyone named WARBURTON, with variant spellings also checked. This would appear to indicate that Richard was himself no longer in Dublin, or he would have made his own deposition.
And if so, it would appear that he may very likely already gone to England, and ahead of his family - perhaps even having already gone there on a visit when the rebellion broke out?
And that is all fairly clearly indicated further by the evidence, shown next, that he was still living, and probably back in Dublin, by 1646.
______________________________________________
AN INTERLUDE IN ENGLAND, FROM ABOUT 1641.
J. MADDEN and Richard WARBURTON were signatories to a financial document, dated 8 September 1643, being a:
"Written receipt for £25 from Wm ADAMS, citizen and draper of London. He is to have a printed receipt on producing a writing between himself and Abraham BABINGTON, in whose name he says that he formerly adventured £100. P.1/2. Signed by J. MADDEN and Richard WARBURTON. Erased, End'd, Ibid 200" ["Calendars of State Papers relating to Ireland preserved in the Public Record Office, Reign of Charles I, 1625 - ...", edited Robert Pentland MAHAFFY, 1900, Volume cclxii, page 317].
Receipt dated 9 August 1643, "... by J. MADDEN and Richard WARBURTON, for £66 13s 10d from the same (*); with a note by the Treasurers of July 1643, certifying the receipt. P 2/3. S.P. Ireland. 300, 132" [Ditto. page 342].
Previous, or the same (*), was "... from Sir John CORDELL, Kt, and Alderman of London."
Richard WARBURTON was named in minutes of a Committee meeting held on 16 October 1646, attended by the Lord Lieutenant, STAPLETON, CLOTWORTHY, TEMPLE, NORTON, LISLE and CHALONER ["Calendars of State Papers relating to Ireland preserved in the Public Record Office, Reign of Charles I, 1625 - ...", edited Robert Pentland MAHAFFY, 1900, Volume cclxii], who heard that:
"Richard WARBURTON, who is employed by the Relief Loan Treasury for Ireland, is being sued by Mr Edward CANNING for an old debt incurred in Ireland, which, owing to his losses there, he cannot pay. He has offered reasonable satisfaction. This committee expect that Mr WARBURTON may not be prevented from doing his public service by Mr CANNING's acting rigidly in the matter."
Undoubtedly the same CANNING family into which Jeffrey CARTWRIGHT was married - he was a partner of Richard WARBURTON in Dublin (see above).
Richard WARBURTON was named in minutes of a Committee Meeting held at Derby House, 16 November 1647, chaired by the Earl of Warwick, with ten others in attendance, and which covered a number of financial requests and payments, including:
"Other sums paid to MONKE and JONES; and to Mr MADDEN, Richard WURBURSTON (sic), and Mr DAVIES, the provision dealer" [Calendar of the State Papers relating to Ireland, ditto, 1900].
And he was again named in "Further Orders of the same," 24 March 1648 [Westminster], attended by ANNESLEY, NORTON, ROLL, TEMPLE, PRESTLY, KNIGHTS, JEPHSON, CORBETT and LISLE, which received:
"The petition of Richard WARBURTON and John MADDEN to be considered by the treasurers at Grocer's Hall" [Ditto, page 89].
From these entries, it hard to avoid getting the impression that Richard was probably involved in the provisions side of merchanting. And that he was, inevitably, still in England, and probably living in London.
In 1653, Chancery Court records [TNA, C 10/17/144], WARBURTON v. Lord KERRY:
"Plaintiff: Richard WARBURTON.
Defendant: Patrick (FITZMAURICE) Baron KERRY.
Subject: Money matters, Ireland.
Document type: Bill and Answer."
Probably too early for the son Richard Junior, presuming this Richard to have been the original Irish settler.
"A Census of Ireland circa 1659, with Supplementary Material from the Poll Money Ordinances (1660-1661)," Edited by Séamus PENDER, M.A., was published in Dublin in 1939; the Census is believed to have been part of the Down Survey made by William PETTY, between December 1654 and the year 1659 (as part of the Cromwellian land confiscations used to reward Merchant Adventurers, and English soldiers for their arrears of pay); at page 444 is this entry, for the Barony of Garriecastell, in the King's County:
"Parish - Bellegally; Place - Kincorre; Numbers - 28; Tituladoes Names - Richard WARBURTON, Senior, Gent, and Richard WARBURTON Junior, Gentle; Numbers 3 English and 25 Irish."
As there were only two Richard WARBURTONs living in Ireland in 1660, it is evident that these two were father and son, aged about 65 and 26; but, as there were only three English people in residence, it does ask the question as to who was the third WARBURTON, and why was there only one more? However, the term "tituladoes" used by PETTY may not mean that they actually possessed Kincorre - as suggested by PENDER in his preface. Perhaps they did not both reside there either?
After this "Census," a number of these named citizens were "... appointed to be Commissioners for putting in execution" the Poll Money Ordinances of 1660 and 1661, "... for the speedy Raising of Moneys for His Majesty's Service." These documents had been safely lodged in Marsh's Library, Dublin.
The List of Commissioners for the First Ordinance was ordered to be printed on 24 April 1660; the King's County list appears on page 622, with twenty-eight named, including eighteen Esquires, five Gentlemen, and another five Esquires - sixth in the first list of Esq's was Henry L'ESTRANGE, and first in the list of Gents was his brother-in-law, Richard WARBURTON.
The List for the Second Ordinance was ordered to be printed on 1 March 1660(-61); the Queen's County list appears on page 640, with the High Sheriff and the Burgomaster of Maryborough (both for the time being), three Knights and thirty-six Gents - thirty-third in this list was Richard WARBURTON, and fortieth was William L'ESTRANGE (perhaps his brother-in-law, or nephew); the King's County list appears on the same page, with the Sheriff, two Knights, and twenty-nine Gents - sixth in this list was Henry L'ESTRANGE, but there were no WARBURTONs.
By 1667,
Richard's second son George was working in the Post Office in Dublin; he was described by Anthony John HUGHES [his "Post Office in Ireland," 1638-1840, 2015, at page 55], under a sub-heading of "Stagnation and neglect in Post Office management during the Restoration era," as:
"... George WARBURTON, son of a wealthy Dublin Merchant..."
HUGHES did not indicate whether the wealthy Merchant was still living, but that is likely, although not yet guaranteed, as follows.
_________________________________________
THE DEATH OF RICHARD WARBURTON (THE FIRST).
The details of the death of Richard WARBURTON, the spouse of Elizabeth L'ESTRANGE, remain a mystery.
Sir William BETHAM, in his WARBURTON of Hefferston Pedigree [his Abstracts, on Findmypast], did record a death in 1669 for a Richard WARBURTON of Ireland, but without a source citation, and for which I have been unable to find any corroborating evidence.
The Chancery Court of Ireland Bill Books [Findmypast] have no mentions of Richard WARBURTON from 1641 until 1662 (when his sons Richard and George were both adults). No entries appear in the Exchequer Court Bill books until 1674, when both George and Richard do appear.
The lack of mentions of Richard from 1641 until 1662 does raise the question - did Richard and his wife Elizabeth actually return to Ireland after the 1641 Rebellion, and the consequent Cromwellian Inter-regnum?
However, the total number of Chancery Bills being entered did begin to drop in 1641, and substantially so from 1645 to 1648; and in the years 1649 through 1654, there were none at all.
So, it cannot be construed from these records whether Richard Senior was living in England or Ireland; nor is there any solid indication in them as to his demise.
Indeed, there is no indication in any archived record what part he, or his three sons, played in that post-civil-war Commonwealth period, which ended with the Restoration in 1660.
______________________________________________
RICHARD WARBURTON'S FAMILY.
Richard WARBURTON appears to have been married, probably in Dublin, about the early 1630s, to Elizabeth L'ESTRANGE, daughter of Thomas L'ESTRANGE, of Moystown, in the King's County (see next below); no details have yet been discovered concerning her death.
They had issue three sons:
1. Richard WARBURTON, born about the mid 1630s. See [A] below.
2. George WARBURTON, born about the late 1630s. See [B] below.
3. John WARBURTON, born about the early 1640s. See [C] below.
BURKE and FOX-DAVIES [Landed Gentry, 1912, page 746] recorded that Richard WARBURTON, "... of Dublin, and living there in 1622," also had a daughter named Susannah, who was married firstly to Captain Thomas ASKE, of Thurles; and secondly to Daniel GAHAN, of Coolquil, County Tipperary; it is said (on Wiki-tree) that in 1666, Daniel GAHAN and his wife Susan, daughter of Richard WARBURTON of Dublin, the widow of Thomas ASHE, were granted land in the Barony of Slievardagh, County Tipperary, and that O'HART recorded three sons of this second marriage - Sir Daniel, George and John GAHAN.
It appears that an earlier BURKE [Landed Gentry, 1847] may have erred in the 1622 date; but whether the information about the GAHAN marriage is correct, and whether the first husband was ASKE or ASHE, I have not yet verified.
It is possible, perhaps even likely, that this second husband was the Captain Daniel GAHAN who was the Postmaster in Dublin, shortly before 14 October 1667, when he and his successor, George WARBURTON, jointly petitioned the Duke of ORMOND with a plaint of debt against Edward GILLIGAN and another [TNA, MS Carte 154, folio 152].

THE ERASMUS SMITH TRUST AND THE HIGH SCHOOL, DUBLIN.
[Despite my using bold type here-under, it is likely, given the extended date range, that the following entries were for the son, and not the father.]
Richard WARBURTON, of Dublin, Esq, was named in an Indenture, dated 26 January 1666[-67], by which Richard KINGDON, Esq, for the sum of
£209, granted him the Town and Lands of Brackenagh, Kilcloncorkery, Conbrok, Balleshane and Pollagh - Mc Grage (except 260A:2R:26P retrenched lands in the last), next to Clonast in he Barony of Coolisowne, King's County.
[Image of original document for its sale (the document) on-line - "17th Century Sale of Lands, Co Offaly"].
On 8 June 1667, Richard COOTE , Esq, and Richard WARBURTON, were Plaintiffs in a Chancery Bill, to which the defendants were Jerome SANKEY, Daniel HUTCHINSON, Richard LEIGH, John PRESTON, Robert CLARKE and Erasmus SMITH [Chancery Court of Ireland, Bill Books, on Findmypast.co.uk].
On 2 May 1668, Richard WARBURTON was named as the sole Defendant in a Chancery Bill, brought on by a number of k, including Richard KINGDON. The first Plaintiff was Erasmus SMITH, Esq; the other six were Henry Lord Bishop of Meath; John BYSSE, Lord Chief Baron of the Court of the Exchequer; Heiram SANKEY; Richard TEIGH; Daniel HUTCHINSON; and John PRESTON.
On 18 November 1674, Richard COOTE, Esq, was sole Plaintiff to a Chancery Court Bill, in which the Defendants were the same Henry Lord Bishop of Meath, John BISSE, Jerome SANKEY, Erasmus SMITH, and Daniel HUTCHINSON, as well as Edward ROBERTS, Richard WARBURTON and John PRESTON.
Richard WARBURTON was Plaintiff to two Bills, entered in the Chancery Court, Dublin, on 1 July 1678, and 21 April 1680, in both of which Richard COOTE was the Defendant.
There can be little doubt that these were a series of Bills, connected with the Erasmus SMITH Trust, as follows.
W.R.T. WALLACE, in his "Faithful to our Trust. A History of the Erasmus SMITH Trust and the High School, Dublin" [Dublin, 2004, at pages 45, 55], mentioned:
"The other two who were in serious arrears were Colonel COOTE and Richard WARBURTON, whose joint lease dated from 1657. The sub-committee divided their arrears into two parts. The first dated from 17 August 1666, that is from the new arrangements made under the Transmitted Bill, to 1673, when the new Trust was established. The second period was from 1673 to 1677. In all, COOTE owed £1015 12s 6d for the two periods combined; Richard WARBURTON seems to have paid the earlier period, because he was only billed £427 for the period after 1673."
But WALLACE went on to effectively identify which Richard this was, at page 55, as follows:
"... by 1697... The long struggle to secure the arrears from COOTE and WARBURTON resumed with limited success. Their lease was due to run out in 1699, which strengthened the Governor's position. On 6 April 1699, WARBURTON secured the lease of the joint holding for 21 years at a rent of £370. He paid off almost £500, and his son Richard gave a bond for a further £1,000."
Clearly the last mentioned father and son did not include the first settler, Richard (Gen I); although it is not clear whether the original lease involved the original settler, or his son Richard (Gen II) below - however, I suspect that the original settler was probably not involved.

SOME ERRORS IN THE LITERATURE.
BURKE's 1847 Dictionary of the Landed Gentry and its errors drew an early response, published in a letter to the editor of the December 1847 edition of Gentleman's Magazine [Volume 18, page 562]:
"Stephen's Green, Dublin.
"Dear URBAN,
"I am a dabbler in genealogy, and, I may add, a lover of antiquities, because they illustrate the history of man. I wish to encourage publications of family history, and am possessor of both editions of Mr BURKE's Dictionary of the Landed Gentry.
"I love truth, and therefore address you, who have been a lover of truth. I do not entirely blame Mr BURKE for the errors he publishes in what he receives on the credit and responsibility of his contributions. It is impossible for him to scrutinise the pedigrees sent him; but when they are published they are open to criticism and observation: and no gratification of personal vanity will justify a violation of the truth.
"I am acquainted with the Irish family of WARBURTON, and have perused the statement given by Mr BURKE, upon which I offer you a few remarks: viz't 'the Royalist character of the family in the 17th century, and the sufferings from the Cromwellites!'
"Richard WARBURTON, the Clerk of the Privy Council when Richard CROMWELL was Lord Lieutenant in 1654! absolutely in the usurper's service instead of being 'a persecuted loyalist.'
"Secondly. The said Richard was not son of John WARBURTON. His father was William, and he was the same Richard WARBURTON who was the M.P. for Portarlington, and is called by Mr BURKE second son of Richard and brother of George and John. Mr BURKE has him father to himself.
"Now a deed is in existence to which the said George and John WARBURTON are parties in trust for their 'elder brother Richard WARBURTON,' of Garryhinch 'alias' Timberton, which proves the inaccuracy of the pedigree, and I am sorry to say there are many such mis-statements in the Dictionary of Mr BURKE within my own knowledge, on which I only speak.
"The Irish WARBURTONs are undoubtedly branches of the Cheshire family, but not descended in the way mentioned by Mr BURKE.
"Yours, etc.
"W.S. BUTLER."
Of course, as it appears to me, BUTLER did not get it right, either - having omitted to identify the father of the three brothers, Richard, George and John, as Richard (1622), who may, in turn, have been a son of either John or William, although I have not yet found hard evidence of the which, if indeed either. And arguably so if he was the London Haberdasher, whose father was George.
Further, James Arthur WARBURTON (1892-1982), in his "The WARBURTONs of Garryhinch," and published on the www.warburton.one-name.net web-site, wrote:
"I have a document from the Dublin College of Arms (fn), noting that one Richard WARBURTON of Dublin, Merchant, named in a chancery decree dated 8th February 1635, and married to Elizabeth L'ESTRANGE, was father to three young men, Richard, George and John, of whom Richard was the eldest.""Footnote - ... probably from Conrad SWAN, the York Herald of the College of Arms."
Which, I do believe, gets us a lot closer to the "truth."

SEVERAL PRE-REGISTRATION IRISH PROPERTY DEEDS.
In March 2005, I down-loaded a detailed account of the Irish WARBURTON family which appeared on the www.irishmidlandsancestry.com web-site. It was entitled:
"Richard WARBURTON - memoir of the WARBURTON Family of Garryhinch."
There were two dates included, which are unexplained (but perhaps they may refer to two Editions of BURKE's Landed Gentries?):
"Dublin, 1848; 2nd Edition, 1881."
The author of the memoir is elsewhere identified as Michael Henry GILL, with contributions by Henry KEMMIS and Richard WARBURTON, and was privately printed by University Press, Dublin, in January 1848.
In setting out to untangle the three sons of the "original" Richard WARBURTON of Dublin, the memorial included mentions of the 1695 Marriage Settlements for Richard WARBURTON and Elizabeth PIGOTT (see further below), with confirmation Deeds of Lease and Release made in 1698, as follows:
"By articles, previous to the marriage of Richard WARBURTON Junior, only son of Richard Senior, with Elizabeth PIGOTT, bearing date 1695, and made between George WARBURTON and John WARBURTON, Esqrs, both of the City of Dublin, in behalf of Richard WARBURTON of Garryhinch, in the King's County, their elder brother, of the one part; and John PIGOTT of Kilfenning (Kilfinney), in the County of Limerick, Esq, of the other part; large estate of the said Richard Senior in the King's and Queen's Counties, and County of Limerick, were covenanted to be settled in the usual manner, to provide a maintenance for Richard Junior, and a jointure for his intended wife, and the usual limitations to the issue of said marriage."
The author, with evident good reason, observed that:
"Richard WARBURTON Senior was no party to these articles, but they prove that he had two younger brothers, George and John."
Although he failed to make the distinction between this Richard WARBURTON Senior and first Dublin settler of 1628/1635.
The memoir continued:
"By Deeds of Lease and Release of the 17th and 18th of June 1698, made between Richard WARBURTON Senior, of Garryhinch, in the King's County, of the first part; the Hon. Robert ROCHFORT, Sir Francis BLUNDELL, and John USHER, Esq, of the second part; Sir Thomas SOUTHWELL, Richard WARBURTON the son of George WARBURTON, and Henry WARREN of Grangebeg, Esq, of the third part; Richard WARBURTON, Esq, eldest and only son of the said Richard WARBURTON Senior, and Elizabeth WARBURTON alias PIGOTT, eldest daughter of John PIGOTT of Kilfenning in the County of Limerick, of the fourth part; reciting that the said marriage was had, and the portion of the said Elizabeth of £1,400 has having been paid; the said Richard WARBURTON Senior, in pursuance of the said articles, grants and conveys to the said Robert ROCHFORD and the other trustees and their heirs, all the lands comprised in the said articles, upon the trusts in the said deed contained."
Clearly the case of Richard WARBURTON Senior playing catch-up, having been contracted in the earlier marriage settlements in his absence by his two younger brothers on his behalf.
The Deeds Registry in Dublin did not commence operations until 1708. The above deeds will therefore not be among their holdings - unless they were "recited" in detail in other deeds made after 1708. I have not yet seen any later deeds which include such citations (they may exist), but neither do I have any reason to suspect the veracity of the above details of the two earlier deeds.

______________________________________________
RICHARD WARBURTON (GEN II).
[A] Richard WARBURTON appears to have been born about 1634 (although I have seen no age evidence related to any event for him); which makes him on the somewhat youngish age (still a minor) when he was appointed Under Clerk to the Council, 1654, evidently under the patronage of Henry IRETON (Cromwell's son-in-law) as Chief Clerk, and in the service of Henry CROMWELL (Oliver's son) as Lord Lieutenant of Ireland, at a salary of £l50 per annum ["History of the Irish Parliament"]; as Richard Junior, Gent, with his father, "Census" of 1659, at Kincarre, Parish of Benegally, Barony of Garriecastell, King's County; Clerk Assistant to the House of Commons, Dublin, from 8 May 1661 until 6 August 1666; in 1665, he petitioned the House of Commons in Dublin
"... for his services, and was eventually awarded £600 on top of the £150 he had already received; 30 years later he was still trying to get the money, but this time he was more successful" [History of the Irish Parliament, JOHNSON-LIIK].
Richard WARBURTON appears to have made his first appearance in the High Court of Chancery, Dublin, on 2 October 1662, in a Bill brought on by John, Lord Bishop of Ardagh, the Plaintiff, and Richard as first of twelve Defendants, followed by John SHEPHERD and Frances his wife, Robert PERCIVAL and Mary his wife, Warner WESTENRA, Sir Robert NEWCOMEN and Dame Katherine his wife, Tymothy GRALEERE and Jane his wife, and Robert NEWCOMEN and Elizabeth his wife; Answers of WARBURTON, two SHEPARDs and Robert and Elizabeth NEWCOMEN, 13 October 1662; Answer of Sir Robert and Dame Katherine Newcomen, 7 November 1662; Messrs MORGAN, REYNELLS, SOUTHWELL, ROOKE and DAVIS (presiding) [Chancery Court, Bill Books, Findmypast].
Richard WARBURTON was the second of two Defendants, with Alexander COSBY, in the Chancery Bill of Thomas CARRE, Esq, the Plaintiff, entered on 10 December 1667; Thomas POWER (presiding).
Richard WARBURTON to James CLARKE, "9 at night," 28 February 1669(-70?):
"Recites various circumstances concerning the appointment of the writer's brother to an office under H.R.H., the Duke of York, in relation to the postal and pacquet service between England and Ireland. Gives assurance of his said brother's faithfulness and loyalty. Asks his correspondent's good offices with H.R.H. and with the Duke of ORMOND, in relation to some pending proceedings as to the office aforesaid." [TNA, MS Carte 54, fol 350 - Bodleian Library].
Richard WARBURTON, the Plaintiff, entered his Chancery Bill on 27 July 1671, Sir Abraham YARNE(?), the Defendant; Answers of Def't 29 August and 21 November 1671; Jo' TEMPLE (presiding).
Sir Abraham YARME's cross-bill, entered 13 December 1672; Defendant WARBURTON's Answer, 25 March 1673.
Richard WARBURTON, Plaintiff, entered his Chancery Bill, 24 October 1673, vs Sybilla DUNN, William L'ESTRANGE and Daniel DUNLANY, Defendants; Answer of all Def'ts 27 January 1673(-74); Answer of DUNN and DELANY, 22 May 1674; John USHER (presiding), by Comm.
Sybilla DUNN was the widow of Barnaby DUNN, and before him of Richard COSBY of Stradbally Hall; she was born about 1592-93, the eldest daughter of Sir Robert PIGOTT of Dysart, Queen's County, by his first wife Anne ST LEGER.
Richard WARBURTON, first Defendant, with William L'ESTRANGE, in the Chancery Bill of Richard COOTE, Plaintiff, entered 6 November 1677; Rob't ORMSBY and Jno USHER (presiding); Answer of WARBURTON, 13 July 1678.
Richard WARBURTON's Bill (perhaps a cross-bill) as sole Plaintiff, entered 1 July 1678; Defendant COOTE's Answer 27 January 1678(-79); two Rejoinders, 19 August and 17 October 1679; Jno USHER and Rob't ORMSBY (presiding).

Richard was High Sheriff of the King's County, 1691 [Journal of the County Kildare Archaeological Society, Volume VIII, 1915-17, by Thomas Ulick SADLIER]; recommended to be added to the list of Commissioners of Array for the Queen's County, about April 1691, with his son Richard Junior, and John SPRANGER, Stephen FITZGERALD, Alexander COSBY, Esq's, and Captain Thomas PRIOR ["The History of the Life and Reign of William-Henry, Prince of Nassau and Orange," by Walter HARRIS, Dublin, 1749, Appendix, Page lxxii]; M.P. for Ballyshannon, 1697-99 and 1703-13.
Richard WARBURTON, Senior, of Garryhinch, Esq, was named in a deed of Mortgage by Lease and Release, dated 19 and 10 October 1709 [Memorial 704, Dublin Deeds Registry], together with his son and heir apparent Richard WARBURTON Junior, also of Garryhinch, Esq, and Elizabeth WARBURTON the wife of the said Richard WARBURTON Junior, by which their lands of Garryhinch alias Timbertowne, and other lands, were mortgaged to William WHITSHED of the City of Dublin, Esq, the mortgage also naming Richard WARBURTON of Dublin, Esquire, of the third party, the said lands mentioned to have been devised to the said Richard WARBURTON Senior and Junior by the Governor and Company for making Hollow Sword Blades in England, by an indenture dated 24 June 1709, for and during the natural lives of the said Richard WARBURTON of Dublin, and Richard and John WARBURTON the sons of the said Richard WARBURTON Junior.
Richard died in February 1717.
Richard was married, by Banns of Matrimony proclaimed at St Michan's parish church, Dublin, 3, 10 and 17 April 1656, to Judith SANDS, "... and had their certificate" [published register images on the www.irishgenealogy.ie web-site] - the marriage itself was not recorded in the register, and may have taken place elsewhere; she was a daughter of William SANDES, of Dublin, who it appears had been Clerk Assistant to the Parliament in Dublin from July to November 1634 (he is identified in a SANDES family pedigree as having been born in Cumberland in 1597, went to Ireland and lived in Carrigafoyle, County Kerry, died in 1668, and was married to Elizabeth FEARNLEY, who died in 1658).
Richard and Judith had issue:
1. Elizabeth WARBURTON, baptised at St Michan's parish church, Dublin, 8 April 1658.
2. Richard WARBURTON, born about 1664. See [D] below.
3. Susannah WARBURTON, born about 1675; her will, dated 1745, of Mountmellick, Queen's County, Widow [Diocesan and Prerogative Wills and Administrations Index]; she was married to Henry WARREN, of Grangebegg, County Kildare; they were named in the Marriage Settlements, dated 8 and 9 July 1724 [Memorial 28836, Book 46, Page 333], for their son and heir, Richard WARREN, to Mary PERCY, Spinster, the daughter of Henry PERCY of the City of Dublin, Esq, with a marriage portion of ₤3,000, and for which the Trustees included Richard WARBURTON Junior, of Garryhinch (probably her nephew), and Richard WARBURTON of the City of Dublin (perhaps her cousin); of Grangebegg, County Kildare, his will was proved 2 September 1723 [BETHAM], naming his wife Susanna, sons Richard, Maurice and George, cousin Henry son of Walter STEPHENS, Esq, and grand-daughter Susanna SANDS; they appear to have had issue:
a. Richard WARREN, eldest son; of Grangebegg, County Kildare, Esq, his will dated 2 February 1734-35, proved P.C.I., 12 February 1734-35, naming his wife Mary, and brothers George WARREN and Pigott SANDES [BETHAM]; he was married, by Settlements dated 8 and 9 July 1724, to Mary PERCY, Spinster, daughter of Henry PERCY of the City of Dublin, Esq [Memorial 18836, Book 16, Page 333]; they had issue, including:
i. William WARREN, named in the will of his uncle, Maurice WARREN, 1725.
b. Maurice WARREN; of the City of Dublin, Esq, his will, dated 24 June 1725, proved 22 November 1726 [BETHAM], naming his brothers Richard and George, his mother Susanna and father Henry, brothers-in-law Pigott SANDS and Rev George WARBURTON (and his wife Charity), niece Susanna SANDS, Aunt NUTTAL and her daughter Mary NUTTAL, nephew William WARREN son of his brother Richard, and cousin Frederick TRENCH.
c. George WARREN.
d. Susan WARREN; of the parish of Gilltown, County Kildare, Spinster, when she was married, by P.C.I. License dated 23 February 1716(-17?), to Pigott SANDES, of the parish of Tennyhinch, Queen's County, Esq [BETHAM]; with issue, including a daughter Susanna SANDS, named in the will of her grand-father, Henry WARREN, 1723, and of her uncle, Maurice WARREN, 1725 [BETHAM].
4. Elizabeth WARBURTON; born about 1675; she was married to Frederick TRENCH of Garbally, and were ancestors of the Earls of Clancarty.
5. Anne WARBURTON, born about 1680; she was married to the Very Rev John TRENCH, Dean of Raphoe, who died in 1725; they were ancestors of the Ashtown TRENCH family.
6. Margaret WARBURTON, born about 1681; she was married, 29 April 1701, to Charles NUTTALL, of Bolybegg, County Kildare; he died on 11 February 1722-23, aged 50; his will, dated 9 November 1722, named as his executors Richard WARREN of Grnagebeg, County Kildare, and his brother Joseph NUTTAL, Of Dublin; they had issue, including:
a. Henry NUTTALL, the eldest son; he inherited the farm at Bolybeg.

e. Mary NUTTALL; named in her cousin Maurice WARREN's will, dated 24 June 1725 [BETHAM]; she was married to Rv Robert PINSENT.
f. Margaret NUTTALL; died in 1756, unmarried.
Margaret was not the first WARBURTON to marry a Charles NUTTALL - and the earlier marriage may be another pointer to Richard WARBURTON Senior's origins, perhaps instead in Lancashire.
Three generations earlier, Charles NUTTALL was married, by License of the Archdeaconry of Cheshire, dated 11 March 1625-26, to
"... Elizabeth WARBURTON, Parish of Bury, Lancashire, Spinster. Bondsman James KEY. At Bury or Haslingden, Lancashire" ["Marriage Licenses granted within the Archdeaconry of Cheshire in the Diocese of Cheshire, 1624-1633," edited by William Fergusson IRVINE, The Record Society, 1909, at page 54].

GEORGE WARBURTON (GEN II).
[B] George WARBURTON, born about 1640; of Aughrim, County Galway, and Firmont, County Kildare; of Dublin, Gent, when he was examined in Dublin, 11 October 1664, by Sir John TEMPLE and others, under direction of the Earl of Ossory (Lord Deputy), "... in respect to a conspiracy for the circulation of counterfeit pieces of eight in the kingdom of Ireland" [The National Archives, CARTE MS 37, folio 683 - Bodleian Library, Oxon], it having involved "... some intercepted correspondence addressed to George WARBURTON, one of the persons lately under examination here," 14 October 1647 [ditto, MS 33, folio 681, ditto]; his petition, "... now Post Master," along with that of Captain Daniel GAHAN "... the late Post Master," addressed to the Duke of Ormond, 14 October 1667 [ditto, MS 154, folio 152]; his "... good conduct in his management of the Post Office in Dublin, under an agreement with Lord Arlington" was certified by DAVYS to ORMONDE, 9 May 1668, his appointment having been "... opposed by some persons in England" [ditto, MS 36, folio 311].
George first appears in High Court of Chancery in Ireland Bill Books in 1668; on 7 May 1669, he entered his Bill in the Chancery Court, Dublin, with his wife Dorothy, as joint Plaintiffs, against Defendants William SANDES, William HAMILTON, William L'ESTRANGE, Richard WARBURTON, Alexander COSBY and Thomas L'ESTRANGE (they were the executors of Henry L'ESTRANGE, January 1665-66); he was mentioned twice more in 1669, then again in 1671, 1673 (3 times), 1675, 1677, 1678, 1681, 1682, 1683, 1690, 1692, 1693, 1700, 1701 (3), 1703 and 1704; he is also mentioned in High Court of the Exchequer of Ireland Bill Books, in 1674, 1676, 1684, 1685, 1686, 1689, 1694 (3), 1698 (2), and 1701.
George was granted a lease (with renewal for ever), dated 25 October 1698, from the Earl of Arran, of the Manor of Aughrim, for a term of three lives, being his three sons Richard, John and George [BETHAM's Abstract].
George was M.P. for Gowran, 1692-93; and first Member for the Borough of Portarlington, 1695-99 (his nephew Richard was the 2nd Member).
George died on 14 November 1709.
He was married to Dorothy L'ESTRANGE, daughter of Henry L'ESTRANGE of Moystown (see above); she was buried at St John's parish church, Dublin, 23 April 1716, as Mrs Dorithy WORBERTON, a Widow.

John was mentioned in High Court of Chancery Bill Books in 1669, 1671 (3 times), 1675, 1679 (4), 1681, 1685, 1692 (2), 1694, 1696, and 1697; ditto, Court of Exchequer, 1680 (2), 1681, 1688, 1691, 1698, and 1701.

RICHARD WARBURTON (GEN III).
[D] Richard WARBURTON, born in King's County, about 1664; he entered Trinity College, Dublin, Pensioner (Tutor Mr ARCHIBALD), 9 July 1679, aged 15 [Alumni Dublinenses], but appears not to have proceeded to as degree; he was admitted to the Middle Temple, London, 8 May 1683, "... son and heir of Richard WARBURTON of Garryhinch, King's County, Ireland, Esq" [Admissions Register]; Minutes of Parliament (Middle Temple), 23 October 1691, "...on the petitions of Messrs W. TRENCH and R. WARBURTON, alleging their hardships in Ireland, the suits against them for commons and other duties shall be staid till the first Parliament in Easter Term" [Middle Temple Records, page 1403]; ditto, 15 April 1692, "... the suits of Messrs W. TRENCH and R. WARBURTON for their commons and duties shall be proceeded in" [page 1407]; ditto, 25 November 1692, "... on Mr W. TRENCH's petition, all his vacations and assignments are remitted. His bond, and that of Mr R. WARBURTON shall be returned, as they have paid pensions and other duties and charges of suit" [page 1412].
Richard was M.P. for the Borough of Portarlington, from 1692 until his death in 1715, as second Member to Daniel GAHAN (1692), Sir Joseph WILLIAMSON (August 1695), George WARBURTON (1695), Thomas CARTER (1703), Ephraim DAWSON (1713, and Richard WARBURTON (1715) - although this last entry may have resulted in the two of them swapping positions (see below).
Richard was High Sheriff of King's County, 1701; of Garryhinch, Junior, when named in Deeds dated 6 and 7 July 1713 [Memorial 43161]; in August 1714, on the death of Queen Anne, he stood for election as Knight of the Shire, with Dudley COSBY, as recorded by his son Pole COSBY (in his "Autobiography"), who identified Richard as being a son of his (Pole's) great-uncle WARBURTON (effectively identifying a L'ESTRANGE relationship).
Richard WARBURTON, of Portnahinch, Esq, now the 1st Member for the Borough of Portarlington, attended his last House of Commons sitting on 22 December 1715, while his father was still living. The House was adjourned until 16 January next (1715-16), during which sitting it was:
"Ordered that Mr Speaker do issue his warrant to the clerk of the Crown, to make out a writ to the Sheriff of the Queen's County, for electing a Burgess, to serve in this Parliament, in the Room of Richard WARBURTON, deceased" [Journals of the House of Commons of the Kingdom of Ireland, Volume VI, Page 154].
This session ended when the sitting on 8 March 1715 adjourned until Thursday 3 May next, 1716 [ditto, Page 221] - which establishes that the Irish Parliament did use the Julian Calendar.
Richard WARBURTON therefore died some time between 23 December 1715 and 15 January 1716 (Gregorian or modern day style).
In December 1763, another M.P. died in office - John PIGOTT, Member for the Borough of Banagher, King's County - the press notices of this death and the writ being issue for his replacement were 10 days apart, which may have been standard, and if so, Richard may have died before 5 January.
Richard was married, by Settlements dated 9 January 1695, to Elizabeth PIGOTT, daughter of John PIGOTT of Rathkeale, County Limerick; they had issue:
1. Richard WARBURTON, born on 6 December 1696 [footnote to his entry in the Westminster Abbey Burial Register]; admitted to the Middle Temple, London, 25 June 1716, "... son and heir of Richard WARBURTON of Garryhinch, King's County, Esq. Called 24 May 1723 [Admissions register]; Parliament of 24 January 1723-24, "... Mr R. WARBURTON, upon payment of Duties, may have his bond" [Middle Temple Records, page 195]; he was elected Knight of the Shire for Queen's County, 12 October 1729 (in the room of Dudley COSBY, defeating Pole COSBY, and after the withdrawal of St Leger GILBERT, and then of Sir John BYRNE); he thereby became the M.P. for the Queen's County, 1729-61; he was named in a number of PIGOTT family property deeds, 1727-43; he died at his apartments, Jermyn Street, London, 23 October 1771, and was buried on 29 October in the South Cloister of Westminster Abbey - "The Funeral Book, which says that he died 23 October, also gives his age as 80, although he is said to have been born 6 December 1696. He had been many years M.P. for Queen's County. He died at his apartments in Jermyn Street, according to the Journals of the day, unmarried, having devised Garryhinch and his other estates to his fourth brother, Peter WARBURTON, Esq" ["The Marriage, Baptismal and Burial Registers of the Collegiate Church or Abbey of St Peter, Westminster," by Joseph Lemual CHESTER, London, 1876, page 414].
2. John WARBURTON; he was bequeathed £100 in the will of his maternal grandfather, John PIGOTT, 1716-17.

Judith WARBURTON, probably born in or before 1710; she was married, by Settlements dated 13 June 1727 [Memorial 35602, Volume 52, Page 630], and as his third wife, to Emanuel PIGOTT of Chetwynd, County Cork, the trustees being Lancelot SANDES of Kilcavan and Southwell PIGOTT of Cappard (joint second parties) and Richard WARBURTON of Dublin City and Richard WARBURTON of Garryhinch (joint third parties); they had issue.
7. Jane WARBURTON; she was married to George PIGOTT of Knapton, Queen's County, son of Emanuel PIGOTT of Chetwynd by his first wife; they had issue, including:
a. Thomas PIGOTT; he was married in 1763 to his first cousin Priscilla CARDEN (see above).
? Alicia WARBURTON, not yet found attached to this family in any published pedigree; she was unmarried in 1792, when she was cited by "her cousin-german" Rev Charles MONGAN (later the Bishop of Cloyne - see below) as desiring him to change his surname to WARBURTON by Royal Warrant, perhaps to improve his prospects of promotion to the ecclesiastical status of Bishop.
8. Gertrude WARBURTON, born about 1715, and if so, very shortly before her father's death; she was bequeathed £100 in the will of her maternal grandfather John PIGOTT, 1716-17; she was married to William CARDEN, of Lismore, Queen's County; they had issue:
a. Priscilla CARDEN; she was married, November 1763, to her cousin Thomas PIGOTT, the son and heir of George PIGOTT, of Knapton, Queen's County, by Gertrude WARBURTON.

1. John WARBURTON; died young.

2. Richard WARBURTON, born about 1778 (perhaps a few days before 7 October 1777), although he was said to have been born at Garryhinch in 1773 [a Family Tree on Ancestry.com]; of Garryhinch; High Sheriff of Queen's County, 1801; Deputy Lieutenant and J.P. for King's County; he took his family to the South of France during the 1820s; he is said to have died at Garryhinch, 15 July 1853 [Dublin Evening Mail, 25 July 1853], although he appears to have been buried with his recently deceased wife, in Nice, Alpes-Maritime, France, in the churchyard of Holy Trinity Anglican Church (established in 1820, under the jurisdiction of the Bishop of London, the present church built in 1860); a case was brought in the Court of Chancery, in 1855, by Richard WARBURTON, Administrator of Richard WARBURTON, deceased, to which the respondents were George, William, Peter, James, Robert, Thomas Kemmis, Anne and Mary WARBURTON, Martha WEHRUNG and Charles William WEHRUNG her husband, Susan CICOGNARA and Charles CICOGNARA her husband, and Richard WARBURTON an infant, concerning the affairs of Richard WARBURTON, late of Garryhinch, Esq, deceased [Saunders News-Letter, 29 May 1855].
Richard was married in May 1800, to Anne KEMMIS, daughter of Thomas KEMMIS of Kildare Street, Dublin (the settlements were dated 10 May 1800); she died at Nice, France, 29 August 1852, aged 76 [Freeman's Journal (Dublin), 8 September], and was buried at the Holy Trinity Anglican churchyard, Nice; they had issue:
a. John WARBURTON, born about 1801-02; of Garryhinch; High Sheriff of Queen's County, 1829; Church Warden, Cloneyhurke Parish, April 1832, when he was mentioned in a report of the death threat against his father, in connection with collection of the Church cess; he was killed in a duel in Paris, December 1839, eldest son [Dublin Morning Register, 26 December].
b. Thomas WARBURTON, born about 1802-03; probably the Master WARBURTON who died in late November 1818, "... at Mr BURROWES' school, Eniskillen, after a few hours illness... second son of Richard WARBURTON of Garryhinch, Esq" [Carlow Morning Post, 7 December].
c. Richard WARBURTON, born in March 1804. See [***] next below.
d. George WARBURTON, born at Garryhinch, about 1805; mentioned in his brother James's admission as Cadet, Hon East India Company Service, 1829, and for his brother Robert, June 1829; he arrived in Australia on the ship "Hannah Maria," from London 6 May 1853, bound for Melbourne, with goods, purchased in Paris, worth over 1,000 pounds, calling in at Port Adelaide on 9 September, but she ran aground at Lacepede Bay, near Cape Jaffa, on 10 September; he engaged in litigation against the crew of the "Hannah Maria," and with the keeper of the bonded stores in Port Adelaide, over his cargo; he was granted a Storekeeper's License, as a Merchant, Grenfell Street, Adelaide, June 1854 [S.A. register (Adelaide), 13 June]; Proprietor, Wine, Spirit and General Store, Grenfell Street, Adelaide, October 1854, when he advertised the sale of "... a Varied assortment of Goods from the first Manufacturers of France, consisting of Silks, Gauzes, Cashmeres, Velvets..." [S.A. register, 21 October]; first Insolvency Notice, February 1855 [S.A. Register, 16 February]; hearing adjourned until 30 May 1855 [Adelaide Observer, 28 April]; Audit Meeting, 1 October [Adelaide Observer, 8 September]; Dividend Meeting, 5 November [Adelaide Observer, 13 October]; he very soon after moved to Sydney; District Registrar for Births, Deaths and Marriages, District of Paddington (Sydney), 28 February 1856 [N.S.W.

(District Registrar), in 1863 [so named in his brother Richard's death notice, Sydney Mail, 25 April 1863]; he was appointed District Registrar (B.D. & M.'s) for Redfern and Botany, 3 July 1863 [S.M.H., 4 July]; he died at his residence, Cleveland Street, Redfern, 30 October 1865, aged 61 [S.M.H., 1 November], Registered #1858, of Cleveland Street, Chippendale, of Carcinoma (12 months), parents Richard WARBURTON and Ann KEMMIS, informed by his daughter Mary A. WARBURTON, of the same address, [Transcript of Statutory Deaths Registration]; a funeral notice was inserted in the S.M.H., 3 May, by his brothers-in-law Anthony C. DONLAN (sic), Charles DEVINE, Christopher J.

George was married in Dublin to Catherine (Jeanette) TOOLE or O'TOOLE - his death registration recorded this event in Dublin, "about 1843," which is at odds with the mention in his widow's death registration that she was married at age 20, which would suggest the year was about 1837 (if aged 65 at death, as in two of her death notices), or in 1839 (if aged 62 at death, as in two more of her death notices); Catherine died at the residence of her son-in-law (A.C.

WILL OF ROBERT PIGOTT OF DYSART, 1728.
Robert PIGOTT, of Dysart, Queen's County, was the last proprietor of that estate in the senior line of descent from the original settler and grantee, his great-times-four grandfather John PIGOTT, who received his Patent for it in 1562, and died in 1570.
Robert, made his will on 5 January 1728, having already sold the estate a few years earlier to his second cousin, Emmanuel PIGOTT, of Chetwynd, County Cork, but reserving himself the right to continue living there until his death.
It was proved in the Prerogative Court of Ireland, 30 April 1730, about a fortnight after his death.
The will [from an abstract published in Vere Langford OLIVER's "History of the Island of Antigua," Volume 3, page 26-27], recorded the following:
"... to be buried in the vault in Dysart Church with my father, mother and wife... £1,400 is due by bond from Richard WARBURTON of Garryhinch, Esq, and Captain John WARBURTON, his brother; £600 from Richard WARBURTON of Donnecarney, Councillor; ..."
The remains of Dysart "Castle," and the unroofed ruins of the second parish church, lie about a mile south of the Rock of Dunnamaise, between the towns of Maryborough (now Portlaois) and Stradbally, in the Queen's County (Laois). I am a direct descendant of one of Robert PIGOTT's younger brothers, probably Walter.
Emanuel PIGOTT was related to the Garryhinch WARBURTONs, by his third marriage, to Judith WARBURTON. Robert and Emanuel's nearest common ancestor was John PIGOTT of Dysart (1591-1646), the eldest son and heir of Sir Robert PIGOTT of Dysart (1565-1642) by his first wife Anne ST LEGER.
John PIGOTT of Rathkeale, whose daughter Elizabeth was married to Richard WARBURTON in 1695, was another "Dysart" PIGOTT, but of an even younger branch than Emmanuel - his line was associated with the separate Queen's County estate of Cappard, in Rosenallis parish, near Mountmellick. This estate was inherited separately from Dysart, by the eldest son of Sir Robert PIGOTT's second marriage (about 1603) to Thomasin PEYTON, the widow of Peter CASTILLION.
Details of these PIGOTT families may be found in other posts on this blog site.
Shortly after Robert's death, a Deed of Assignment, dated 30 September 1730 [Memorial 44375, Book 65, Page 36], was executed between Pigott SANDES and Richard SANDES of Kilcavan, in the Queen's County, Walter PIGOTT and Thomas PIGOTT, unto
Richard WARBURTON of Garryhinch, in the King's County, Esq; reciting that whereas, by deeds dated 17 and 18 May 1725, made and perfected between Robert PIGOTT then of Dysart in the Queen's County, of the one part, and Emanuel PIGOTT of Chetwind in the County of Cork, Esq, of the other part (the sale of the Dysart estate for £4,000).
The SANDES family of Kilcavan, Queen's County, were also related to the Dysart PIGOTTs.
Pigott and Richard SANDES were sons of Lancelot SANDES, who was married to Elizabeth PIGOTT, a sister of the above Robert PIGOTT.

REV JOHN WARBURTON, RECTOR OF VALENTIA.
[F] John WARBURTON, born King's County, about 1753; he entered Trinity College, Dublin, as a Pensioner (Private Tutor), 6 January 1772, aged 19, son of Richard, Clericus [Alumni Dublinenses]; B.A. Aest (Summer) 1781; probably Curate to his father at Banagher; Rector of Valentia, County Kerry (Barony of Ivragh); his letter, dated at Valentia Island, 19 October 1823, to Henry GOULBURN, Chief Secretary, Dublin Castle, "... concerning the difficulties in obtaining tythes, observing that 'the parish in its present situation will not support me.' Emphasising his financial distress. Refers to his former work as Curate to his late father, the C.of I. Rector of Rynagh, Banagher, King's County, and the assistance he gave to his father in the management of the Free School of Banagher... Requests government relief" [The National Archives of Ireland, CSO/RP/1823/1733]; his subsequent letter, dated at Tralee Jail, 10 December 1823, "... referring to his arrest for debt, and renewing his application for government relief," and noting that "... his family must beg, and I starve" [NAI, ditto].
John died in November 1829, "Nov. 7, at Valentia, county of Kerry, the Rev John WARBURTON, Rector of that parish" [Dublin Evening Packet and Correspondent, Tuesday 17 November], and "... brother of Captain WARBURTON, of the Royal Navy, formerly of the Impress Service in Limerick [Kerry Evening Post, Saturday 21 November 1829]; the Valencia Burial Register [Typed Transcript, FOLLIOTT Abstracts, Findmypast.co.uk, page 8] records his burial on 10 November, as "WARBURTON, Rev John, Kilmore, 72" - however, the www.irishgenealogy.ie web-site, curiously citing "other date information", records his burial at Dromod, County Kerry, also on 10 November 1829, and aged 72 years (Dromod Church of Ireland or St Finian's Churchyard, Waterville, on the eastern side of Ballinskellig Bay). He was succeeded as Rector of Valentia by his late Curate, Rev Godfrey DAY, by appointment of the Government (the Rectory was not within the gift of the Bishop of Limerick).
Another death notice [Gentleman's Magazine, Volume 99, part ii, page 646], suggested, in error, that he was the Precentor of Limerick, and related to theBishop of Cloyne - but this was another John WARBURTON, who was the Rector of Kill, County Kildare (see the MONGAN-WARBURTON section below).
John was married, about 1804, to Anne, probably BIRRELL; on 3 July 1826, Rev John WARBURTON recorded the burial at Valentia of Peter BERRELL, Esq, Deenglass, aged 84 years, a possible relation of his wife?
Ann, as a widow, emigrated to New South Wales, probably in 1840 or shortly after; she died at her son's residence at Pyrmont, near Sydney, on 29 March 1842, "... widow of the late Rev John WARBURTON, Rector of Valentia, Ireland" [Sydney Herald, 30 March]; and was buried at Camperdown Cemetery.
John and Ann had issue:
1. Anne WARBURTON, probably born about 1805; she may have died in 1852; she was married, 26 August 1824, to Thomas JERMYN, of Castlecove, Kenmore, as the "... daughter of the Rev John WARBURTON, Rector of Valentia" [T.C., Friday 20 August 1824 - FOLLIOTT Abstracts]; they appear to have had issue:

b. Thomas JERMYN, born 1826; died 1912.
c. John Warburton JERMYN, born 1827; died 1901.

"... at his brother's residence, Derwent Street, Glebe... second son of the late Rev John WARBURTON, Rector of Valentia, Ireland, in the 64th year of his age" [Evening News, Sydney, 15 May]; he was buried at Rookwood Necropolis [Anglican, Section B, plot 375].
4. Sylvester Birrell WARBURTON, born about 1816. See [#] below.
5. George W. WARBURTON, born about 1822; he probably emigrated to N.S.W. in 1840, with his brother and widowed mother (he had been in Sydney 20 years by 1860); Assistant (or Supernumery) Clerk, Police Department, Sydney, August 1843, at 6 shillings per diem, when he was recommended to be placed upon the establishment; Deposition Clerk, Police Department, Sydney, December 1847; Chief Clerk, Central Police Department, Sydney, 1858; he was guest of honour at a farewell dinner in Sydney, 1860, at which Thomas SPENCE, a Sydney Alderman (and my great-great grandfather), was present - George had just been appointed Registrar of the District Court, Mudgee; he died at the residence of his brother-in-law, Mr G.L. FULLER, Kiama, 20 August 1876,
"... youngest son of the late Rev John WARBURTON of Valentia and Werah, Ireland, aged 54 years" [Sydney Mail, 2 September; Australian Home and Country Journal, same date], and was buried at Kiama Cemetery, and recorded on his gravestone as
"Late Police Magistrate, Mudgee" [Memorial 48915584, Findagrave.com]; he was married by Special License, at St Michael's Anglican Church, Wollongong, 28 June 1850, to Sarah Jane FULLER, daughter of Mrs Ann FULLER of Wollongong [S.M.H., 1 July]; she died 2 December 1918, aged 58, and was buried with her husband, her maiden surname recorded as FULLARTON.
6. Bartholomew WARBURTON, born about 1823; he was buried at Valentia, 7August 1828, of Kilmore, aged 5 years [FOLLIOTT Abstracts, Valentia Burial Register, page 8]. The same abode as Rev John a year later suggests he was probably a son.

THE WARBURTON FAMILY OF PYRMONT, SYDNEY.
[G] John WARBURTON, born about 1808; of Valentia, County Kerry (where he grew up), and of Cappanarra House, Abbeyleix, Queens County, 1832-1854 (where he married and had children); he probably arrived in Victoria, 6 December 1856, on the ship Marco Polo, from Liverpool (1 August), aged 40, Labourer, bound for Sydney, with two of his children; he settled in Pyrmont, where his brothers had been established since emigrating in about 1840; Coal Merchant and Ship Owner, of Pyrmont; he had his letter to the Editor published in the S.M.H. of 28 April 1863, in connection with the coal trade, and as one of the owners of vessels trading between Sydney and Newcastle; he died on 23 September 1873, "... at his residence, Pyrmont... eldest son of the late Rev John WARBURTON, Rector of Valentia and Iveragh, Ireland, in his 65th year" [S.M.H., 24 September], and was buried at Rookwood Necropolis [Anglican, Section B, Plot 374]:
[The western face of the WARBURTON family marble obelisk, Rookwood Necropolis, in the original Church of England (or Anglican) Portion, Section B, Plots 372-375 with three more adjoining Plots, 416-419, in the next row to the east.
Photos taken by the author in late 2019 and early 2020.]
His will was proved on 23 November 1873, with grant to Sylvester WARBURTON, and Thomas John FULLER of Kiama [N.S.W. Government Gazette, 25 November].
John was married firstly, at Abbeyleix parish church, 24 July 1832, to Harriett MURPHY, both of the parish; she was the eldest daughter of the late Charles MURPHY, of Durrow, and a niece of the Irish missionary Rev Gideon OUSLEY and of General OUSELEY of the Portuguese Service [undated newspaper notice in an e-mail from Alan WARBURTON - evidently the Limerick Chronicle, 4 August]; she died at Abbeyleix, and was buried there, 21 Jul 1844, aged 33 years [Abstract from the Parish register, Representative Church Body (R.C.B.) Library, Churchtown, County Dublin, made by John O'GRADY of Dublin in 2005]; John was married secondly, at Mountrath parish church, Clonnenagh, Queen's County, 16 January 1846, to Sarah CARTER, aged 35, Widow, daughter of William PILSBURY, Apothecary; there is no appropriate death registration in N.S.W. Statutory Indexes, so it appears that Sarah probably died in Ireland, sometime before 1855.
John and Harriet had issue:
1. Anna Maria WARBURTON, baptised at Abbeyleix parish church, 11 April 1832 [R.C.B. Library], but this date clashes with her parents marriage; she died at Cappannara, and was buried at Abbeyleix churchyard, 24 October 1854, aged 21 years [R.C.B. Library].
2. Charles George WARBURTON, baptised at Abbeyleix parish church, 12 July 1835 [R.C.B. Library]; he may have emigrated to Victoria on the ship "King of Algeria," 1857; he settled in Sydney, and became part of the family concern at Pyrmont; the will of Adam SCHWOEBEL, late of Marrickville, was proved in early December 1888, to George Eliot WARBURTON, of Marrickville, Wood and Coal Merchant, "...in the said will called Charles George WARBURTON" [N.S.W. Government Gazette, 7 December]; he died at Manly, in 1915, and was buried at Rookwood:
[The southern face of the WARBURTON obelisk.]
Charles was married at Kiama, 20 August 1863 [#2058], to Sarah ALLEN, of Albion Park, N.S.W. (South Coast); she died on 19 December 1891,
"... at her residence, Esplanade, Manly, the beloved wife of C.G. WARBUTON, aged 52 years" [S.M.H., 21 December], daughter of John and Margaret ALLEN, and sister of Eliza, the wife of Sylvester WARBURTON; they had issue:

CAPTAIN PETER WARBURTON, OF CHELSEA HOSPITAL.
Peter WARBURTON; "... Capt. in his Majesty's Chelsea Hospital. Died there on 6 June 1730, in the 94th year of his Age" [Monumental Inscription, "Survey of London,", Edited by Montagu COX and Philip NORMAN, 1900, London City Council - Volume XI - The Parish of Chelsea - Part IV, at page 85, in an appendix, headed "The burial ground of the Royal Hospital"]; his wife Martha was buried with him, on 21 July 1737, "... in ye 59th year of her Age" [M.I., ditto].
The entry was headed:
"Headstone with achievement of arms.
"Arms: WARBURTON quartering EGERTON (the latter obliterated).
Crest: A Saracen's Head cut off at the Shoulders."
Curiously, the Kentish Weekly Post, Wednesday 13 June 1739, carried this death notice:
"On Wednesday last, died at his Apartment in Chelsea College, Capt Peter WARBURTON, aged upwards of 90 years."
This does compute to a death on 6 June, unless this item had been copied from an earlier newspaper.
But the 9 year difference in the year poses a serious problem - unless one of the readings of the inscription mistook the last digit as a 9 instead of a 0 - which, in worn inscriptions, is an easy enough error to make.
He may have been the Peter WARBURTON who was married at St Martin-in-the Fields, in 1716, to Martha MILLER, both of Chelsea.

"First. I desire that all my just debts and testamentary expenses be paid, and satisfied, by my Executors, hereinafter named, as soon as conveniently may be after my decease.

"Thirdly. I bequeath unto Shah Jahan BEGUM above named during her lifetime for her own use and benefit, the Rents of my house at Scalkole and of all my houses in Amritsar - also the Rent, or Rents, of any house, or houses, I may become possessed of elsewhere in India.
"Fourthly.

I hereby constitute the above named Robert WARBURTON, who is at the time of writing a Cadet in the Military CoCollegellege of Woolwich, my heir.
"Fifthly. In case the Rents of houses named in third paragraph do not amount to Rs 150 per month, I wish this latter sum to be made up as a monthly income of Shah Jahan BEGUM, from the interest of money in deposit in the Agra and United Services Bank, or from Dividends on the Stock of that Bank.
"Sixthly. in the event of the death of the above named Robert WARBURTON, I hereby appoint my brother Arthur my heir, with this proviso - that Shah Jahan BEGUM above named may receive a monthly income of not less than Rs 200, and that all bequests in this will be duly paid by, or through him.
Seventhly. To J.P. WARBURTON, I bequeath Rs 5,000, J.P. WARBURTON being my adopted son. To my brother Arthur I bequeath Rs 10,000. In the event of his death to his children. To Mussido (?) KHAN, who is an old servant and who was faithful and true in difficult times, I bequeath 500 rupees. To my brother James, now in Prince Edward Island, I bequeath £500 sterling clear of any duty or tax - in the event of his death the amount to be divided among his children, his daughter Mary Elizabeth to have £100 as her portion.
"Eighthly. I sincerely hope that my son Robert will recollect his mother and be kind to her, as hitherto he has always been the (?) she watched him in danger and in trouble that when he went under (?) were hunted like a jackal by the hounds of that monster Mohamad Akbar JHAN, she by her ability and influence was enabled to preserve him - and that had it not been for her he (?) would probably not now be what and where he is, and that she (?) would at any time have risked her life for him.
"Ninthly. I hereby appoint the above named Robert WARBURTON, and my brother Arthur, executors to this my last Will and Testament.
"Tenthly. I declare this to be my last Will and Testament, revoking all and any others which may have previously been made.
