Nicholas Netterville, 3rd Viscount Netterville (died 1689) was an Irish Jacobite peer and soldier.
Netterville was the son of John Netterville, 2nd Viscount Netterville and Lady Elizabeth Weston, daughter of Richard Weston, 1st Earl of Portland. In 1659 he inherited his father's peerage. [1] The family estates had been seized under the Act for the Settlement of Ireland 1652; following the Stuart Restoration, Netterville attempted to have the property restored to him. Despite recovering 6,000 acres from the court of claims during the 1660s, this amounted to only one fifth of the seized estates.
Following the Glorious Revolution, Netterville adhered to James II of England and he was made a member of the Privy Council of Ireland upon James' arrival in Dublin in March 1685. In May 1689 he was summoned to attend the Irish House of Lords in the brief Patriot Parliament. [2] Netterville joined James' army during the Williamite War in Ireland, obtaining a commission as a lieutenant. [3] He was taken prisoner in Derry in 1689, outlawed, and died shortly afterwards, possibly of wounds. He was succeeded in his title by his eldest son, John.

Lieutenant-General Charles Butler, 1st Earl of Arran, de jure3rd Duke of Ormonde (1671–1758) was an Anglo-Irish peer. His uncle Richard was the 1st Earl of Arran of the first creation. The titles were re-created for Charles in 1693. His elder brother, the 2nd Duke of Ormonde, was attainted during the Jacobite rising of 1715, but in 1721 Arran was allowed to buy the estate back. At the death of the 2nd Duke, he succeeded as de jure 3rd Duke of Ormonde in the Irish peerage but did not claim the title.
Daniel O'Brien, 3rd Viscount Clare, was with King Charles II in exile during the interregnum. At the Restoration, he obtained the title of Viscount Clare for his grandfather and full restoration of the family's lands. At the Glorious Revolution he supported James II, sitting in the Patriot Parliament and fighting for him at the Battle of the Boyne. He was in consequence attainted as a Jacobite.

John Netterville, 2nd Viscount Netterville (c.1603-1659) was an Irish peer, soldier and statesman of the seventeenth century. He was noted for his devout Roman Catholic beliefs and his strong support for the Irish Catholic political cause; this led him during the Irish Rebellion of 1641 and the ensuing Civil Wars to play a double game, offering support to both the Crown and the rebels, with the result that no party to the conflict fully trusted him. He was charged with treason by the Government of Charles I and his estates were forfeited by Oliver Cromwell. He died in his English exile of natural causes.
