Walter de la Haye

Sir Walter de la Haye (died after 1309) was an English-born statesman and judge in Ireland of the late thirteenth and early fourteenth centuries, who served for many years as Sheriff of County Waterford and as Chief Escheator, and briefly as Justiciar of Ireland. He was held in high regard by the English Crown, which protected him from accusations of corruption. He became a substantial landowner in two counties. He had children, but his family seems to have died out within a couple of generations. rdf:langString
