Co. Waterford Elections Co. Waterford: File of ten documents relating to the election for Waterford County, 10 June 1829 to 22 Jan 1830. In 1826, after a sensational campaign, Henry Villiers-Stuart, backed by O'Connell, had defeated one of the two sitting MPs, Lord George Beresford, on the issue of Catholic Emancipation. However, when Stuart resigned his seat after the passing of the Emancipation Act in 1829, Beresford was re-elected. At the general election later that year, O'Connell himself took one of the two seats and Beresford the other. The file includes correspondence between Peirce and David Mahony, a draft of Lord George Beresford's address to the electorate, and letters from Charles Maunsell in Waterford and Barton Anderson in Dungarvan providing much local information.
