Viscount Frankfort de Montmorency

Viscount Frankfort de Montmorency, of Galmoye in the County of Kilkenny, was a title in the Peerage of Ireland.

It was created on 22 January 1816 for Lodge de Montmorency, 1st Baron Frankfort,[1] who had earlier represented Bandon Bridge, Dingle, Inistioge and Ennis in the Irish House of Commons.

He had already been made Baron Frankfort, of Galmoye in the County of Kilkenny, on 31 July 1800, also in the Peerage of Ireland.

His grandson, the third Viscount, was a Major-General in the British Army and sat in the House of Lords as an Irish representative peer between 1900 and 1902.

The latter's eldest son, the Honourable Raymond de Montmorency, was awarded the Victoria Cross for his actions at the Battle of Omdurman in 1898.
