This is a list of the Members of Parliament appointed as Escheator of Munster, a notional 'office of profit under the crown' which was used to resign from the Irish House of Commons, and after the Union, that of the United Kingdom.
The escheator was originally responsible for the administration of escheat /ɪsˈtʃiːt/,[1][2] a common law doctrine that transfers the real property of a person who has died without heirs to the crown or state.
The office was formerly substantive. It was founded in 1605, when the escheatorship for Ireland was divided among the provinces of Connaught, Leinster, Munster, and Ulster.[3]
