Garrett Standish Barry JP DL (1788 – 26 December 1864) was a Liberal Member of Parliament for County Cork in the Parliament of the United Kingdom from 1832 to 1841.[1] An extremely popular figure, Standish Barry retired to give his seat to "The Emancipator" Daniel O'Connell, who had failed to retain his seat in Dublin.[2]
The eldest son of Standish Barry and Margaret Roche, he was from a prominent landed family seated at Leamlara House, Carrigtwohill. He was the first Catholic MP elected to represent Cork since the Roman Catholic Act of Emancipation in 1829.[3][4] He was educated at Trinity College, Dublin[5] and called to the Irish bar in 1811.[6] After Standish Barry died, The Cork Examiner wrote of him, "In public life he was respected a stanch and uncompromising Liberal. In private he was esteemed for his highly honourable character and the amiability and kindness of his disposition."[2]
