Sir Richard Martin, 1st Baronet JP, PC (17 March 1831 – 18 October 1901) was an Irish industrialist and a High Sheriff of Dublin.

Family

Martin was the son of the Anglo-Irish landowner James Martin of Cappagh in the county of Dublin. He was educated at Clongowes Wood College. On 4 October 1864 he married Mary, daughter of the Queen's physician-in-ordinary, Sir Dominic Corrigan, Bt. The Irish artist Fergus Martin is his great-grandnephew.

Business and public career

Martin was a member of one of the oldest timber and shipowner firms in Dublin, and a successful shipping magnate in the port of Dublin.

He was appointed to several public boards of the city, including the Irish Lights Board, the Loan Fund Board, and the Port and Docks Board, where he was chairman.[1]

In 1870, he served as Prussian and North German Confederation consul in Dublin.

In 1885 he was President of the Dublin Chamber of Commerce,[1] and on 2 June 1885 was created a Baronet, of Cappagh in the county of Dublin. In 1896 he was further honoured when he was created a member of the Privy Council of Ireland.

Sir Richard died in Dublin in October 1901, aged 70, when the title became extinct.[1]
