Barry Yelverton, 1st Viscount Avonmore Life story
Barry Yelverton, 1st Viscount Avonmore, PC KC, was an Irish judge and politician, who gave his name to Yelverton's Act 1782, which effectively repealed Poynings' Law and thus restored the independence of the Parliament of Ireland. This achievement was destroyed by the Act of Union 1800, which Yelverton supported.
