4 CASTLEMORRES AND THE FAMILY OF MORRES / DE MONTMORENCY

The Morres family has played a prominent part in Irish affairs over many generations. They descend from a Redmond Morres of Knockagh, co. Tipperary, who died in 1624. His son was created a baronet in 1631, and in the 18th century several of his descendants served with distinction in the Irish Brigade of the French Army (the 8th Baronet was killed when scaffolding fell on him at the coronation of Louis XVI).

Hervey Morris, a younger brother of the 3rd Bart, was a captain of horse in the regiment commanded by Cromwell during his Irish campaign. He settled in Co. Kilkenny and was MP for Knocktopher. His grandson another Hervey represented the Irishtown of Kilkenny in Parliament and was Mayor of Kilkenny in 1752-53; he was created Viscount Morres of Castlemorres in 1763.

The first Viscount was succeeded in turn by his two sons by different marriages, and the 3rd Viscount, Francis Hervey Morres, also inherited the Morres baronetcy when the senior line died out. In 1815, together with several other family members, he changed his surname to de Montmorency in (to quote Burke’s Peerage) “the genuine but mistaken belief that his family descended from the distinguished medieval French family of that name”.

The Viscountcy became extinct on the death of the 5th Viscount in 1951, though the baronetcy continued until the death of Sir Arnold Geoffrey de Montmorency, 19th Bart, in 2003.

Through marriage with a daughter of John Kearney, Bishop of Ossory, the family is distantly related to President Barack Obama.

The once-magnificent Castlemorres House, built in 1751 by Francis Bindon, was sold to the Land Commission in 1926 – a few years later it was unroofed and a demolition sale took place. The remains were finally demolished in 1978, and the demesne now forms part of a woodland area of some 2000 acres.

Kilkenny, created Viscount Provenance: de’Montmorency, Castle Morres; Burnchurch House, Mountmorres in 1763) by his first wife Letitia, née Ponsonby. Co. Kilkenny. €5000 - 7000 Inheriting a strong tradition of political involvement on both sides of the family (his uncle John Ponsonby was Speaker of the Irish House of Commons), he played an active part in the activities of the Irish House of Lords. He enthusiastically supported the cause of reform, especially of relief for Catholics, and in 1785 appeared in the House in the uniform of a Volunteer officer. In the portrait he is shown clutching a bill in his right hand, doubtless one of the many that he sought to progress through parliament and perhaps the bill for the cultivation and preservation of trees and shrubs which he piloted in 1791. Thereafter he retired from politics and moved to London, where he suffered increasingly from depression and eventually took his own life. A prolific writer, he was described as “eccentric, rebellious, a wrong-headed Irish patriot, almost an outsider”. He never married, leaving his estates to his sisters while his title passed to his half-brother. Provenance: de Montmorency,; Burnchurch House; Castle Morres Co. Kilkenny. €2000 - 3000

672 Collection of Geoffrey Fitzhenry de Montmorency 1876 - 1955 Governor of Punjab India Geoffrey Fitz-Hervey de Montmorency (1876-1955) was the younger son of the Venerable Waller de Montmorency of Castle Morres, Co. Kilkenny. He was educated at Malvern College and Pembroke College, Cambridge. In 1921-22 he was Chief Secretary to the Prince of Wales (subsequently King Edward VIII) on his tour of India. The tour was intended as a public relations exercise for the British Raj and came at a difficult time in Anglo-Indian affairs - the Amritsar massacre was still a bitter memory and the tour was boycotted by the Congress Party, but the pageantry and the Prince’s easy manner attracted huge crowds. In 1928 de Montmorency was appointed Governor of the Punjab (the proclamation is signed by Sir Samuel Hoare, Foreign Secretary and co-author of the notorious Hoare-Laval Pact which allowed Mussolini to take over Abyssinia). He remained Governor, with one short interval, until 1933

Two of his Uniforms as Governor of Punjab India, one highly elaborate example profusely decorated with “gold thread and bead,” and matching trousers, hide skin gloves, leather boots and patent shoes, all made in India, gilt spurs, etc. Together with two other military uniforms and a hat also belonging to Sir Geoffrey.
