Hardback. 61pp. Disbound. Black 2221. Second Edition. Barry Maxwell, Earl of Farnham was succeeded by his brother Robert in the barony of Farnham in November 1779. He was created Viscount in 1780, and Earl in 1785. He married twice. In the aftermath of the 1798 Rebellion calls for a legislative union with Britain intensified, leading to the Act of Union of 1800. This left Ireland without any form of self-governance through the most turbulent century of her history right until the War of Independence in the early twentieth century.
