About DBpedia

Sir Robert Bagod (died after 1329) was a judge, Crown servant and military commander in fourteenth-century Ireland. He was the eldest son of the judge and landowner Sir Robert Bagod, of a family which had been settled in Dublin since the twelfth century. The Bagods, later called Baggot or Bagot, gave their name to present-day Baggot Street. Here they built Baggotrath Castle, which for centuries was the strongest fortress in Dublin, but of which no trace survives. Robert probably succeeded to his father's estates in 1299.

dbo:abstract Sir Robert Bagod (died after 1329) was a judge, Crown servant and military commander in fourteenth-century Ireland. He was the eldest son of the judge and landowner Sir Robert Bagod, of a family which had been settled in Dublin since the twelfth century. The Bagods, later called Baggot or Bagot, gave their name to present-day Baggot Street. Here they built Baggotrath Castle, which for centuries was the strongest fortress in Dublin, but of which no trace survives. Robert probably succeeded to his father's estates in 1299. At first, he resolved on a clerical career, and advanced as far as canon of St. Patrick's Cathedral, Dublin, but then decided to follow his father into the service of the English Crown. His career followed his father's closely: he served as High Sheriff of County Limerick 1302–3, was knighted around 1308 and became a justice of the Court of Common Pleas (Ireland) in 1307. In 1306 he was appointed one of the collectors of the one-fifteenth (i.e. one-fifteenth of the value of movable goods). He was summoned for military service in Scotland by King Edward I in 1302 but apparently did not serve. In 1310 he was appointed a justice in eyre, for Dublin County only, along with Walter de Cusack, Hugh Canoun and others. He rendered good service to the Crown during the Bruce campaign in Ireland in 1315, fighting mainly in Leinster. Some years later he sat on an important inquisition into claims by the citizens of Dublin to have been impoverished during the Scots invasion. He was Bailiff of Dublin in 1308 and was Chief Serjeant of Limerick in 1317. He either resigned from the Bench or was forcibly retired in 1324, possibly in connection with a "clean sweep" of the Irish judiciary. He died after 1329. He married Avicia and they had at least four sons, Robert, Sylvester, Hervey and Thomas. The last two, like their father and grandfather, were High Court judges. (en)
