John Richardson (dean of Kilmacduagh)

John Richardson (1669–1747) was an Anglican priest in Ireland.

[3] He held livings at Annagh, County Cavan and Belturbet[4] Richardson was a strong advocate for the use in the Church of Ireland of the Irish language.

His efforts earned him the hostility of Archbishop Thomas Lindsay.

Lindsay's successor Hugh Boulter was more sympathetic, and Richardson had preferment, being Dean of Kilmacduagh from 1731 until his death.
