John Sale (c. 1675 – 7 July 1732) was an Irish politician of the 18th century.[1]
Sale was born around 1675. A "John Sale" was Sheriff of County Dublin in 1705; this may have been the same man.[2]
He was a Doctor of Laws and later registrar of the Church of Ireland diocese of Dublin.[3] He was elected to the Irish House of Commons in 1715 for the Carysfort borough and served there until his death in 1732.
Sale married Ellinor Desminières, daughter of Robert Desminières, a Sligo merchant of Huguenot extraction.[4]
His eldest daughter Elizabeth married Richard Wesley, 1st Baron Mornington and was the mother of Garret Wesley, 1st Earl of Mornington; thus, John Sale was great-grandfather to Arthur Wellesley, 1st Duke of Wellington.[5]
