Peter Browne (1670–1724) was the oldest son of Colonel John Browne, a major landowner in the west of Ireland as well as a Jacobite who fought in the War of the Two Kings. A Catholic, the fortunes of the Browne family did not fully revive until the time of his son John, later first Earl of Altamont.
