FamilyHe was a son of Richard Boyle, 2nd Earl of Shannon, and Catherine Ponsonby.[3] His sister Catherine Henrietta Boyle married Francis Bernard, 1st Earl of Bandon.[4] Their maternal grandparents were John Ponsonby, Speaker of the Irish House of Commons from 1756 to 1771, and his wife Lady Elizabeth Cavendish.[5] Lady Elizabeth was a daughter of William Cavendish, 3rd Duke of Devonshire, and his wife Catherine Hoskins.[6] Her maternal grandparents were John Hoskins and Catherine Hale.[7] CareerParliament of IrelandBoyle was educated at Winchester College.[1] He represented the borough of Clonakilty in the Irish Parliament from 1793 until 1797 and then Cork County from 1797 until the Act of Union in 1801. In 1798, he was also elected for Rathcormack, however chose not to sit. According to his obituary in The Gentleman's Magazine, Boyle "took an active part in arming the yeomanry in Ireland." On 31 October 1796 Boyle was commissioned Captain of five different units, those of Castlemartyr, Cloyne, Cove, Imokilly and Middleton.[8] At the time the Kingdom of Great Britain and the Kingdom of Ireland were under personal union. The Yeomanry were volunteer regiments raised in many counties from yeomen. Their purpose was to strengthen the defence of the two Kingdoms which faced the threat of an invasion by the French First Republic. The Irish Rebellion of 1798 was assisted by a French invasion force under Jean Joseph Amable Humbert. The rebellion and the invasion failed. To secure control of Ireland, the Parliament of Ireland and the Parliament of Great Britain negotiated a merger of the two kingdoms. The Act of Union 1800 resulted in the formation of the United Kingdom of Great Britain and Ireland. The final passage of the Act in the Irish Parliament was achieved with substantial majorities, achieved in part, according to contemporary documents, through bribery, in the form of peerages and honours to critics to get their votes. Whereas the first attempt had been defeated in the Irish House of Commons by 109 votes against to 104 for, the second vote in 1800 produced a result of 158 to 115.[9] By agreement, Ireland gained 100 seats in the British House of Commons and 32 seats in the House of Lords: 28 representative peers elected for life, and four clergymen of the (Anglican) Church of Ireland, chosen for each session. Parliament of the United KingdomBoyle was among the new Members of the House of Commons, representing Cork County in the new Parliament of the United Kingdom from 1801 to 1807.[1][2] There was no actual United Kingdom general election, 1801. All members of the House of Commons entered it by right of their previous election to seats in Great Britain or Ireland. Cork County also had a second representative in the person of Robert Uniacke Fitzgerald. They are both listed among the Members of the 1st UK Parliament from Ireland. Boyle and Fitzgerald run unopposed in the United Kingdom general election, 1802. They were both among the Members of the 2nd UK Parliament from Ireland. On 6 August 1803, Boyle was commissioned captain of a sixth unit, that of Youghal.[8] During the 1st and 2nd Parliaments Boyle was not listed as either a Tory or a Whig. However he ran as a Whig in the United Kingdom general election, 1806. He was elected alongside George Ponsonby, a fellow Whig. Their faction was at the time under the leadership of Charles Grey, 2nd Earl Grey. In the United Kingdom general election, 1807, Boyle changed his constituency. Ponsonby and James Bernard were elected in County Cork. On 15 May 1807, Boyle was elected Member of Parliament for Bandon[1][2] He succeeded Courtenay Boyle in the position. Henry was listed as a Tory in this occasion. Possibly indicating support for the political coalition led by William Cavendish-Bentinck, 3rd Duke of Portland. On 18 May 1807, Boyle was also elected in Youghal as a Whig. He succeeded James Bernard. On 20 May 1807, the 2nd Earl of Shannon died. Henry succeeded him in his titles and left the House of Commons. He served as Custos Rotulorum of County Cork from 1807 to his death.[1][2] Shannon entered the Privy Council of Ireland in 1808. That same year he became a Knight of St. Patrick.[8] He was the first Lord Lieutenant of Cork from 1831 to his death.[1][2] His death reportedly followed "an illness of nearly two years' duration".[8] Marriage and childrenOn 7 June 1798, Boyle married Sarah Hyde, daughter of John Hyde of Castle Hyde.[1][10] Her mother was Sarah Burton.[11] Their twelve children were listed by order of birth in his obituary:[8]
