Peter Metge
Peter Metge (c. 1740–1809) was an Irish politician and judge of the eighteenth and early nineteenth centuries. He was a colourful character, who was noted for his fondness for duelling, and for his unorthodox private life. Biography He was born in Athlumney, County Meath, the second son of Peter Metge and his wife Anne Lyon, who died in 1792. Anne was reputedly a relative of the Bowes-Lyon family. His grandfather, Peter de la Metgée (1665-1735), was a French Huguenot who fled to Ireland to avoid religious persecution after the revocation of the Edict of Nantes in 1685.
