The names of and votes for candidates at elections are based on Walker. Party labels are based on those used by Stooks Smith and may differ from those in other sources. Many early nineteenth century Irish MPs are not classified by party, by Stooks Smith. In some cases, when a party label is used for the MP by Stooks Smith in a subsequent Parliament, this is noted in the Members list below. At the dissolution of the 2nd Parliament, the MPs by party, were The summary results of the 1806 general election, in Ireland, were as follows. Notes:-
a One Whig and three Tory candidates each contested and won two constituencies. The Right Hon. Maurice Fitzgerald, the Knight of Kerry was elected for Kerry and Tralee. He chose to represent Kerry. Sir George Fitzgerald Hill, Bt was returned by the boroughs of Coleraine and Londonderry. He decided to represent the latter seat. The Hon. George Knox won Dublin University and Dungannon. He decided to sit for the University. Nathaniel Sneyd was elected by Cavan and Enniskillen. He retained the Cavan seat. Each candidacy is counted separately in the table.
b It is possible that there was a petition following the election at Downpatrick, which resulted in Edward Southwell Ruthven being unseated and John Wilson Croker being declared duly elected. Walker does not refer to this petition, but Stooks Smith mentions one. If this change did take place then there should be one more Tory member and one less Whig at the dissolution.
The list is given in alphabetical order by constituency. The County prefixes used for county constituencies is disregarded in determining alphabetical order, but the county follows any borough or city constituency with the same name. The name of an MP who served during the Parliament, but who was not the holder of a seat at the dissolution in 1807, is given in italics. When the date of the election is in italics, this indicates a by-election. A member of the 2nd Parliament, for the same constituency, is indicated by an * before the MPs name. A member of the 2nd Parliament, for a different constituency in Ireland, is indicated by a + before the MPs name. Supplementary notes:-
a Stooks Smith does not classify this MP by party, in this Parliament, but does in the previous and next Parliaments. It is assumed the party allegiance was the same in this Parliament.
b Stooks Smith wrongly lists Hon. Montagu James Mathew as a member of the previous Parliament, following a by-election in 1806 caused by Viscount Mathew having succeeded as the 2nd Earl Landaff.
