all Irish prelate, was dean of Dublin, and was appointed to the see of Dublin in 1763, having previously been parish priest of St. Audeon's. He filled this see six years, and died in Francis Street, Dublin, in 1769. His life seems to have been so unobtrusive and purely ecclesiastical as to leave no materials of interest for a memoir. See D'Alton, A Memoirs of the Abps. of Dublin, page 471.
