Peerage of Ireland

Peerage of Ireland is the term that is used for all peer dignities used, which created the British monarchs in their capacity as Lord or King of Ireland. Before 1801, the Irish peers had a seat in the Irish House of Lords, after the Union of 1801 chose the Irish peers, as well as the Scottish peers since 1707, only 28 representatives in the House of Lords of the United Kingdom. The practice ended with the Irish independence in 1922.

Also, some time after 1801 Irish peers were appointed who had then also no seat in the House of Lords. In addition, the union treaty stipulated that three titles had to be extinguished before a new could be created, at least until the number of titles reached 100. The last title was created in 1898 for Lord Curzon.

The following table Irish peers only currently run titles are listed. Higher or equivalent titles in other peerages are also shown. If an Irish peer holds a lower title in the Peerage of England, the Peerage of Great Britain or the Peerage of the United Kingdom with a seat in the House of Lords, this is also indicated.
