Thomas Fulwar
Thomas Fulwar was an Irish Anglican priest in the seventeenth century.[1]
He was Bishop of Ardfert and Aghadoe from 1641 to 1661.[2] During the Commonwealth he is credited with having ordained - in England - nearly 1000 Anglican clergy, the most active of all bishops in this process.[3] In 1661, no doubt as a reward for this service, he became Archbishop of Cashel.[4] Thomas bequeathed money for the manufacture of a new flagon, cup and paten for the cathedral at Cashel and these survive with an inscription to that effect.[5] He died in office on 31 March 1667.[6]
