Encyclopedia Britannica - Main :: MAR-MEC
MARSH, NARCISSUS (1638-1713) , archbishop of Dublin and
Armagh
 , was born at Hannington, Wiltshire, and educated at
Oxford
 . He became a fellow of
Exeter
  College,
Oxford
 , in 1658. In 1662 he was ordained, and presented to the living of Swindon, which he resigned in the following year. After acting as chaplain to Seth Ward, bishop of
Exeter
  and Salisbury, and Lord Chancellor Clarendon, he was elected principal of St Alban
Hall
 , Oxford, in 1673. In 1679 he was appointed provost of Trinity College, Dublin, where he did much to encourage the study of the Irish language. He helped to found the Royal Dublin Society, and contributed to it a
paper
  entitled " Introductory Essay to the Doctrine of Sounds " (printed in Philosophical Transactions, No. 156, Oxford, 1684). In 1683 he was consecrated bishop of Ferns and Leighlin, but after the accession of James II. he was compelled by the turbulent soldiery to flee to England (1689), where he became
vicar
  of Gresford, Flint, and canon of St Asaph. Returning to Ireland in 1691 after the battle of the Boyne, he was made archbishop of
Cashel
 , and three years later he became archbishop of Dublin. About this time he founded the Marsh Library in Dublin. He became archbishop of
Armagh
  in 1703. Between 1699 and 1711 he was six times a lord justice of Ireland. He died on the 2nd of November 1713.
