BARRY, SIR REDMOND (1813-188o)

This article appears in Volume V03, Page 445 of the Encyclopedia Britannica.

Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: BAR-BEC
BARRY, SIR REDMOND (1813-188o) , British colonial judge, son of Major-General H. G. Barry, of Ballyclough, Co.
Cork
 , was educated at a military school in Kent, and at Trinity College, Dublin, and was called to the Irish bar in 1838. He emigratedto Australia, and after a short stay at Sydney went to Melbourne, with which city he was ever afterwards closely identified. After practising his profession for some years, he became
commissioner
  of the court of requests, and after the creation in 1851 of the colony of Victoria, out of the Port Phillip
district
  of New
South
  Wales, was' the first solicitor-general with a seat in the legislative and executive councils. Subsequently he held the offices of judge of the Supreme Court, acting
chief
 -justice and
administrator
  of the government. He represented Victoria at the London
International
  Exhibition of 1862 and at the Philadelphia Exhibition of 1876. He was knighted in 186o and was created K.C.M.G. in 1877. Sir Redmond Barry was the first person in Victoria to take an
interest
  in higher education, and induced the local government to expend large sums of money upon that object. He was the founder of the university of Melbourne (1853), of which he was the first
chancellor
 , was president of the Melbourne public library (1854), national gallery and museum, and was one of the first to foster the volunteer
movement
  in Australia. To his exertions is due the prosperity of the two institutions with which his memory is identified.
