High Quality Content by WIKIPEDIA articles! The Esmonde Baronetcy, of Ballynastragh in the County of Wexford, is a title in the Baronetage of Ireland. It was created on 28 January 1629 for Thomas Esmonde. He raised a cavalry regiment for Charles I and commanded a regiment during the Siege of La Rochelle. Esmonde was the son of Sir Lawrence Esmonde, who had abandoned the Roman Catholic faith during the reign of Queen Elizabeth and was raised to the Peerage of Ireland as Baron Esmonde in 1632. Lord Esmonde married a Roman Catholic woman and they had a son, Thomas, the first Baronet. She feared that the boy would be raised a Protestant and ran away with him, raising him as a strict Roman Catholic. As Thomas was the child of a mixed marriage, he was not allowed to succeeded in the barony, which became extinct on his father's death in 1646. He did however gain possession of the family estates in County Wexford. Данное издание представляет собой компиляцию сведений, находящихся в свободном...
