Edward Synge

Edward Synge, D.D., M.A., B.A., born at Inishannon in County Cork, was an Anglican clergyman who served in the Church of Ireland as Chancellor of St Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin (1705–14), Bishop of Raphoe (1714–16), and Archbishop of Tuam (1716–41). Part of a long line of clergy (his father, also named Edward, was Bishop of Cork, Cloyne, and Ross), he had two sons, Edward and Nicholas, both of whom became bishops in their own right. Synge is also an ancestor of famous playwright John Millington Synge and the composer Mary Helena Synge.

He was educated at Christ Church, Oxford, England, and Trinity College, Dublin, Ireland. In the late 1600s he was made the rector of Holy Trinity Church, Rathclaren. A renowned preacher, his works were frequently published and included an exhortation to frequent communion translated into Welsh. Amongst other achievements, he established a dynasty of prominent ecclesiastics and literary figures closely integrated into the Protestant squirearchy in the west of Ireland.
