Sir Robert Warren, 1st Baronet JP (20 August 1723 – 1811) was an Anglo-Irish landowner and businessman who owned Warrenscourt House (which was bought by his grandfather, Wallis Warren, in 1703) and Crookstown House (which he inherited from his father's marriage to Anne Crooke) in County Cork.




Life


He was the eldest son of Robert Warren, of Warrenscourt House, and Anne Crooke, a descendant of Sir Thomas Crooke, 1st Baronet, who founded the town of Baltimore, County Cork.
In 1768 he, Richard Tonson, Sir James St Jeffryes and James Bernard founded Tonson's Bank, later to be called Warren's Bank. Warren's Bank, which had over £500,000 on its launch in 1768, funded elections and loaned money to contractors in the American War of Independence. Warren's Bank collapsed in September 1784 owing to banking difficulties in Cork.
In 1750 he was made a Justice of the Peace for County Cork and in 1752 he served as High Sheriff of County Cork. Warren also helped to set up the Muskerry militia and target the Whiteboy movement.
He was made a Baronet, of Warren's Court, on 7 July 1784.
