- Peter_Trevers abstract "Peter Trevers, or Travers (died 1468) was an Irish barrister and judge.He came from a family which had settled in County Meath in the thirteenth century; John de Tryvers, judge of the Court of Common Pleas (Ireland) c.1283-5, was a member of the same family.He is first heard of in London, studying law at the Inns of Court, in 1456 (Ireland then had no law school so that ambitious lawyers and would-be judges were obliged to seek leave to study in London.). He was Serjeant-at-law (Ireland) in 1460. He was clearly a man of some wealth, owning the impressive Baldongan Castle, near Skerries, County Dublin, and a nearby estate at Courtlough. During the Wars of the Roses Trevers, like most of the Anglo-Irish gentry, supported the Yorkist cause, and in 1460 he accompanied Richard, Duke of York to England when York unsuccessfully claimed the English Crown. In 1461, following the Yorkist triumph, Trevers was appointed Master of the Rolls in Ireland by Richard's son, King Edward IV. In 1465 he was charged with raising men for the defence of Dublin. He died in 1468.He married Elizabeth Holywood, or Holywode, daughter and co-heiress of Sir Robert Holywood of Artane Castle. Elizabeth had been twice widowed; her first husband was the 3rd Baron Delvin, by whom she had four sons, and her second husband was Sir Thomas Dowdall, by whom she had one daughter. She and Peter had three children:NicholasAnne, who married Patrick NettervilleCatherine, who married into the Cusack family.".
