Wheeler-Cuffe baronets

The Wheeler-Denny-Cuffe, later Denny-Wheeler-Cuffe, later Wheeler-Cuffe Baronetcy, of Leyrath in the County of Kilkenny, was a title in the Baronetage of Ireland. It was created on 30 December 1800 for Jonah Wheeler-Denny-Cuffe. He later assumed the surname of Denny-Wheeler-Cuffe and served as Mayor of Kilkenny in 1823. The second and third Baronet used the surname Wheeler-Cuffe only. The title became extinct on the latter's death in 1934. The third Baronet was survived by his sister Pauline Florence Elizabeth. The baronetcy was the last ever created in the Baronetage of Ireland.

The family were descended from Jonas Wheeler, Bishop of Ossory, who died in 1640, and his son Oliver, who settled at Grenane, County Laois. Their descendant Sir Richard Wheeler, father of the first baronet, adopted the additional surname Cuffe on inheriting the estate of his maternal grandfather, Denny Cuffe.

Charlotte, Lady Wheeler-Cuffe, wife of the third Baronet, was a botanic artist and collector.

gollark: Anyway, what do the wise people of this channel think I should do regarding this? I can probably:- ignore the hypothetical capacitor and hope it hypothetically exploding is not important and has not caused/will not cause other damage- send it in for repair under the standard warranty and suffer for some time- upgrade the warranty (fairly cheap) for onsite support, somehow resolve logistical issues surrounding this, and have it maybe get fixed- borrow equipment from somewhere to attempt repairs myself
gollark: The "Ackerman routing protocol" was entirely made up, so yes, that is to be expected.
