| - Sir Walter Coppinger (died 1639) was an Irish noble from County Cork, Ireland, who was a magistrate of Cork city, a lawyer, and a landowner. Coppinger came from one of the most prominent families in Cork city; though himself of Viking rather than Gaelic descent, he was hostile to the English settlement of Cork, and had a reputation for ruthlessness. Sir Walter Coppinger was the eldest son of James Coppinger, and the great grandson of Stephen Coppinger who was the first representative of the city of Cork in the Parliament of Ireland in 1560, and Mayor of Cork on two occasions, in 1564 and 1572. Sir Walter was a moneylender, and acquired many lands and properties from people who defaulted on mortgages provided by Sir Walter. This made him somewhat unpopular and his reputation in Cork to this day reflects this. (en)
