There have been three baronetcies created for persons with the surname Everard, one in the Baronetage of Ireland, one in the Baronetage of England and one in the Baronetage of the United Kingdom. Only one creation is extant as of 2010.
The Everard Baronetcy, of Ballyboy in the County of Tipperary, was created in the Baronetage of Ireland on 30 April 1622 for Richard Everard of Fethard, County Tipperary. [1] He was the second son of Sir John Everard (died 1624), justice of the Court of King's Bench (Ireland), and member of the Irish House of Commons for County Tipperary. [2] Sir John was a devout Roman Catholic, and this led both to his dismissal from the Bench and his disqualification from office after his election as Speaker in the Irish Parliament of 1613; but the fact that his son was created a baronet in his father's lifetime suggests that Sir John was still held in high regard by the Crown. Richard shared his father's religious beliefs: he was a prominent member of Confederate Ireland, and was condemned to death by the victorious Cromwellian forces in 1651, but he was reprieved and allowed to die in prison about 10 years later. [3] The third Baronet was killed at the Battle of Aughrim in 1691, fighting on the losing side. His estates were forfeited, but his son later recovered them. The fourth Baronet was created Viscount Everard in the Jacobite Peerage in 1723. The titles became extinct on his death in exile in France in 1742, without issue.
