A Tory , he served in the governments of Lord Wellington and Robert Peel , but is best known for his defeat in the 1828 Clare by-election , hastening Catholic Emancipation across Britain and Ireland . Background and education FitzGerald was the elder son of James FitzGerald and Catherine , 1st Baroness FitzGerald and Vesey , daughter of Reverend Henry Vesey . He was educated at Christ Church , Oxford . Through his father he was of both Old English and Gaelic Irish descent . Political career FitzGerald first entered parliament in 1808 as the member for Ennis ( succeeding his father ) , a seat he held until October 1812 , when he was replaced by his father , and again between January 1813 and 1818 . He was implicated in the scandal involving the Duke of York and his mistress Mary Anne Clarke , but after bringing valuable evidence of the case to the courts he was rewarded when he was appointed a Lord of the Irish Treasury and sworn of the Irish Privy Council in 1810 . In 1812 he was admitted to the British Privy Council and made a Lord of the Treasury in England , Chancellor of the Irish Exchequer and First Lord of the Irish Treasury . He held the Irish offices until they were merged with the English treasury in 1816 . In 1820 FitzGerald was returned to Parliament for Clare , which constituency he represented until 1828 . In 1820 he was appointed Ambassador to Sweden . He tried to make the Swedish King , Charles XIV John , repay the large sums of money given to him during the Napoleonic Wars , but this was to no avail and he returned to Britain in 1823 . He served as Paymaster of the Forces under successively Lord Liverpool , George Canning and Lord Goderich between 1826 and 1828 . In 1828 the Duke of Wellington appointed him President of the Board of Trade and Treasurer of the Navy . This required him to contest the Clare constituency once again , but he was defeated . The election was noteworthy in terms of Irish history because it led directly to Catholic Emancipation spearheaded by his successor , Daniel O'Connell as a result of his win . However , FitzGerald managed to get elected for Newport in 1829 , and served as President of the Board of Trade and Treasurer of the Navy until February 1830 , when he resigned . He briefly represented Lostwithiel in 1830 and then Ennis from 1831 until 1835 . FitzGerald succeeded his mother as second Baron FitzGerald and Vesey in 1832 . As this was an Irish peerage it did not entitle him to a seat in the House of Lords . However , in 1835 he was created Baron FitzGerald , of Desmond and of Clan Gibbon in the County of Cork , in the Peerage of the United Kingdom , and was able to take a seat in the House of Lords . He again held office as President of the Board of Control under Sir Robert Peel between 1841 and 1843 . Apart from his political career FitzGerald was Lord Lieutenant of County Clare from 1831 to 1843 , a trustee of the British Museum , President of the Institute of Irish Architects and a Fellow of the Society of Antiquaries . Personal life Lord FitzGerald and Vesey died in May 1843 , aged 59 . He was unmarried and on his death the barony of 1835 became extinct . He was succeeded in the Irish title by his younger brother , Henry . Lord FitzGerald and Vesey 's illegitimate son Sir William Vesey-FitzGerald became a successful Conservative politician . |
