	Irish House
		It served as the seat of both chambers (the Lords and Commons) of the Irish parliament of the Kingdom of Ireland for most of the eighteenth century until that parliament was abolished in the Irish Act of Union in 1800 when the island became part of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland.
		It was abolished along with the Irish House of Commons by the Act of Union.
		Firstly, the article states "Irish peers had the constant right to elect a number of fellow Irish peers as representative peers to represent Ireland in the House of Lords, ironically introducing a degree of democratic election into the British House of Lords that has never existed since." This is absolutely incorrect, in my humble opinion.

	List of Published Texts
		The king was without peer in the politico-military aspects of the community’s life, but its religious life was exclusively controlled by the tribal (and frequently hereditary) abbot, whilst the brehons, through their guardianship of the law, controlled its social and economic structure.
		I believe, for example, that the Irish were profoundly conscious of themselves as a larger community or natio, that their learned classes were preoccupied with this very notion, and that in the eleventh and twelfth centuries the greater kings attempted to turn that consciousness to political advantage.
		Irish law, however local in application or however much dependent on individual law-schools in fact,[27] regards itself as valid for all the Irish.

	Limerick.com - Maritime Influence on Limerick History in the Eighteenth Century (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The right of the Irish peers to be represented in the House of Lords was part of the unfinished business of Ireland left behind when the Irish Free State was established in 1922, reflecting the fact that the arrangements then made were regarded by all sides as an interim settlement.
		The existing Irish representative peers continued to be summoned to sit in the House of Lords until the last survivor, the Earl of Kilmorey, died in 1961.
		It was possible that another group of Irish peers who had not been party to the earlier petition would have presented a further petition and resisted the application of the precedent in the earlier case on the basis that a relevant argument had not been considered.

	Peerage of Ireland - Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
		The Peerage of Ireland is the term used for those peers created by British monarchs in their capacity as Lord or King of Ireland.
		Before 1801, Irish Peers had the right to sit in the Irish House of Lords, but after the Union in 1801, Irish peers, like those of Scotland, only elected representative peers — twenty-eight in number — to the House of Lords (see List of Irish representative peers).
		Also, if the peer holds a lower title in the Peerages of England, Great Britain, or the United Kingdom, and therefore sat by such a peerage in the House of Lords, such a lower title is listed.

	IRISH CHIEFS (Site not responding. Last check: 2007-10-22)
		The derbfine was composed of the male descendants of a common great-grandfather, and its choice was not limited to the eldest son of a serving Chief, although of course he could be and not infrequently was selected to succeed his father.
		Although there is much talk of Irish 'Clans' and 'Clan Chiefs', it is also important to remember that the Irish did not have a clan system exactly like the Scots, despite the many elements of Gaelic culture common to both countries.
		It is important to stress that most Irish Chiefly titles fell into disuse, and indeed war, flight abroad and destruction of records meant that most aristocratic Gaelic lineages became obscured from the seventeenth century onwards.

	PEERS Arbiter Elegantiae
		PEERS is supposed to be a refuge from costume nazis, not a battlefield for them.
		If there are dance cards or a posted set list, permitting the lady to choose the dance for which you are asking the honor of her hand is a very attractive gallantry.
		While PEERS has no specific costume requirement and many Bay Area parties are "Black tie optional," be warned that a number of local ball committees have very strict dress codes.

	Baronies
		The antiquarian (10th) Duke Niall of Argyll opined that Bachuil was 'the oldest peer in the realm, being a Baron of the kingdom of the Scots of Dalriada'.
		What chiefly distinguishes feudal barons from other peers is that their baronies are in commercio, that is, they can be bought and sold, the title of 'Baron' passing with the property.
		Formerly the Crown needed to give at least the formality of consent to change of ownership of a barony, and before the conveyancing reforms of the mid-19th century a Charter under the Great Seal in progress was usual.

		The more he had been asked, the more he remained convinced of the merits of the convention which was that we did not discuss this matter at all until the list had been published.
