He died on 24 June 1766 and was buried at Kilcash. John Butler married Bridget Stacey on 19 April 1763, but the marriage was childless. On her death in 1760, the estate was inherited by John Butler, the subject of this article. The estate passed to his unmarried sister Lady Amelia Butler, who held it for about two years. With the permission of the Parliament of Ireland, the estate was purchased in 1721 by the second Duke's brother, Charles, the Earl of Arran. However, in 1791, it would be found that the title of 'Earl of Ormond' (and its subsidiary titles) in the peerage of Ireland had merely lain dormant and so could be successfully revived by John Butler's cousin, John Butler, 17th Earl of Ormonde.įollowing the second Duke's attainder, the Ormond estate was administrated by the Forfeited Estates Commissioners. It had been believed that all the titles of James Butler, 2nd Duke of Ormond became forfeit in 1715. In 1758, on the death of the 1st Earl of Arran, his father's second cousin, he unknowingly became de jure the 15th Earl of Ormond. He did not inherit any title as his father held none. John inherited Kilcash and other parts of the lands of Garryricken Manor, which had been created for his grandfather Richard Butler of Kilcash shortly after 1639 and had been divided between his father and his uncle John, who held Garryricken House itself. John had two brothers and five sisters, which are listed in his father's article. John's mother was the eldest daughter of William Burke, 7th Earl of Clanricarde and widow of Bryan Magennis, 5th Viscount of Iveagh. The Butlers were Old English and descended from Theobald Walter, who had been appointed Chief Butler of Ireland by King Henry II in 1177. His father belonged to a cadet branch of the Butler Dynasty, being the grandson and heir of Richard Butler of Kilcash, who was the younger brother of James Butler, 1st Duke of Ormond. He was the third but only surviving son of Thomas Butler of Garryricken and his wife Margaret Magennis. John was born about 1720, probably at Kilcash Castle, his parents' habitual residence. = predeceased his father ( decessit vita patris). John Butler with wife, parents, and other selected relatives. In 1791, the title of Earl of Ormond would be successfully claimed by his cousin, the 17th Earl. He did, however, inherit the Ormond estate from the 1st Earl of Arran through Arran's sister Amelia. He did not assume these titles as he thought them forfeit by the attainder of the 2nd Duke of Ormond. John Butler (died 1766), known as John Butler of Kilcash, a member of the Irish landed gentry, was de jure 15th Earl of Ormond and 8th Earl of Ossory.
