Teige Fitzpatrick, 4th Baron Upper Ossory (also known as Thady Fitzpatrick)(d. December 1627) was the son and heir of Florence Fitzpatrick, 3rd Baron Upper Ossory, by his wife Catherine O'More.[1][2] He married Joan Butler, the daughter of Sir Edmund Butler of Cloughgrenan.
By her, he had issue:
- Brian, aka Barnaby Fitzpatrick, 5th Baron Upper Ossory, his successor.
- Dermot, aka Darby, who was twice married: firstly, Ellinor Comerford (daughter of Richard Comerford, Esq.), widow of John Kennedy, Esq.; and secondly, Ellen Shortall (daughter of Nicholas Shortall, Esq.). He and his son, Dermot Oge, were killed in a battle against English troops at Borris-in-Ossory in 1642.

Teige Fitzpatrick reposed in December of 1627, and rests at Aghamacart. His Lady Joan, reposed in late 1631. Her will indicates a grand-daughter named "Uny ny Donel" ("Una daughter of Donnell"), thereby indicating that Teige may have had another son, Donnell, who was omitted from the pedigree.[3] Alternately, this could be a grand-daughter through one of their daughters.
