Redmond Everard

Sir Redmond Everard (fl.1585) was an Irish politician and landowner from Fethard, County Tipperary: the Everard family for generations effectively owned the town of Fethard.

His eldest son Sir John Everard (c.1550–1624) was a barrister, politician and judge.

[3] John's son Richard (c. 1590-c.1660) was the first of the Everard baronets.

Redmond's younger son James (living 1609) was a Jesuit: both James and his brother openly professed their [[Roman Cath[olic]] faith, despite the penalties imposed on members of that faith under the Penal Laws.
