Barry Michael Egan (1879 – 3 March 1954) was an Irish politician and businessman.[1] He was first elected to Dáil Éireann as a Cumann na nGaedheal Teachta Dála (TD) for the Cork Borough constituency at the June 1927 general election.[2] He was re-elected at the September 1927 general election but he did not contest the 1932 general election.[3] He stood again at the 1933 general election but lost his seat.[3]
Egan was managing director of the family firm of silversmiths, William Egan & Sons. His Cork shop was burned out by the Black and Tans during the War of Independence.[4] From July to September 1922, when Cork was a closed city, Egan was responsible for producing Cork republican silver, for which he devised his own hallmark.[5]
