James Hewitt, 2nd Viscount Lifford (27 October 1750 – 15 April 1830), was an Anglo-Irish peer and Church of Ireland clergyman.Despite much criticism of his appointment, he proved to be an outstanding success in the office, and for many years afterwards, he was fondly remembered by the Irish Bar as "the great Lord Lifford".Mary died in 1765, and her widower in the following year remarried Ambrosia Bayley, a noted beauty who became very popular in Ireland.The younger James was educated at Trinity College, Dublin and Christ Church, Oxford.On 28 September 1789, he succeeded to his father's titles and assumed his seat in the Irish House of Lords.
