James Humphrys

James ("The Squire") Humphrys (1805–1899) was a poor law guardian and farmer in Glenstal and Boher, County Limerick.

He became a Poor Law Guardian for the Poor Law Union of Limerick and is described as such in an 1876 newspaper report and in an 1882 court dispute with his landlord Sir Croker Barrington, 4th Baronet about payment of rent.

On her death there was a vote of sympathy at meeting of Limerick Guardians.
