Samuel Boyse (1696-1730) was an Irish politician.
Boyse was born in Dublin.
He was educated by Mr Drury of Dublin and entered Trinity College Dublin on 18 October 1711, aged 15. No degrees recorded.
From 1725 until 1730, he was MP for Bannow.
He died as a result of a duel, at about age 34 in Cullenstown, County Wexford, Ireland
Bannow (Irish: Banú) is a village and civil parish lying east of Bannow Bay on the south-west coast of County Wexford, Ireland. In modern times the main settlement is the village of Carrig-on-Bannow (or Carrig). In Norman times there was a borough called Bannow on Bannow Island at the mouth of the Bay. This town has since disappeared, probably due to the silting up of the natural harbour channels in the 14th century, and the former island is now attached to the rest of the parish.
