De Vere baronets

The Hunt, later de Vere Baronetcy, of Curragh in the County of Limerick, was a title in the Baronetage of Ireland. It was created on 4 December 1784 for Vere Hunt, who subsequently represented Askeaton in the Irish House of Commons. The second Baronet assumed the surname of de Vere in lieu of his patronymic in 1832. The fourth Baronet represented County Limerick in Parliament. The title became extinct on his death in 1904.

The Hunt/de Vere family estate for 300 years (1657–1957), including the period of the Baronetcy of Curragh, is the present day Curraghchase Forest Park, in County Limerick.

The second Baronet was a noted poet whose third son, Aubrey Thomas de Vere, was a renowned poet and critic.
