William John Fitzpatrick
William John Fitzpatrick (31 August 1830 – 24 December 1895) was an Irish historian. Life He was born at Thomas Street, Dublin. His father, John FitzPatrick, was a successful merchant or trader who left his son a competence. FitzPatrick was educated first at a Protestant school, and later at Clongowes Wood College, co. Kildare, the well-known Jesuit School. He early displayed a taste for recondite and somewhat morbid investigation into the secret history of eminent personages. In 1855 appeared his first book, ''The Life, Times, and Contemporaries of Lord Cloncurry''. The style of the latter was 'puerile, involved, and turgid,' revealing a defect which the author never overcame. But his next book, ''The Life and Times of Bishop Doyle'' (1861), was much more successful, and, besides giving a vivid picture of a powerful personality, it provides a useful contribution to Irish nineteenth-century history. On 3 November 1855, FitzPatrick commenced a series of letters to ''Notes ... [...More Info...] [...Related Items...] OR: [Wikipedia] [Google] [Baidu] |

Fitzpatrick () is an Irish surname that most commonly arose as an anglicised version of the Irish patronymic surname Mac Giolla Phádraig ()Kay Muhr, Liam Ó hAisibéil"Fitzpatrick"in ''The Oxford Dictionary of Family Names of Ireland'', Oxford University Press, 2021 ''"Son of the Devotee of (St.) Patrick"''. In some cases, it may also have independently arisen by a similar anglicization of a likely-distinct Irish patronymic, Ó Maol Phádraig, ''"Descendent of the Follower of (St.) Patrick"''. or in rare cases as a genuine Anglo-Irish patronymic incorporating the Norman French ''fiz'' ('son of') and the male name Patrick. Giolla Phádraig (meaning "the devotee of aintPatrick", also one of origins of the surname Kilpatrick) was the personal name of Gilla Patráic mac Donnchada, a tenth century king of Ossory. His sons were subsequently styled ''Mac Giolla Phádraig'' (meaning, ''son of Giolla Phádraig''), and gave rise to a dynasty of Kings of Ossory that bore this patronymic ...
