Sir Josias Cunningham Northern Ireland leader
Friday, August 11, 2000
BELFAST, Northern Ireland -- Sir Josias Cunningham, a leader in Northern Ireland's top Protestant party and a key figure in creating the province's power-sharing government, has died in an automobile accident. He was 66.
Cunningham, who died Wednesday in a two-car collision on the outskirts of Belfast, was elected in 1991 as president of the Ulster Unionist Council. The council is the governing body of the Ulster Unionist Party, the largest party in Northern Ireland.
In November, Cunningham played an important role in resolving the party's debate on whether to join a new regional government with Sinn Fein, the political allies of the Irish Republican Army.
The IRA fought for decades to abolish Northern Ireland as a Protestant-majority state linked to Britain -- a fight that made it an irreconcilable enemy for many Ulster Unionists. To reassure reluctant party members about the power-sharing idea, Cunningham secured a postdated resignation letter from Ulster Unionist party leader David Trimble which was to take effect if the IRA did not move to disarm.
When the IRA did not move, Cunningham's determination was a factor in the British government's decision to suspend the Northern Ireland government. The government's powers were restored in May after the IRA agreed to international inspection of some of its arms stores.
Trimble said the party would miss Cunningham's skill.
“He was a man of tremendous integrity, a man of tremendous commitment to serving the community through politics,” he said.
Northern Ireland Secretary Peter Mandelson, the senior British official in the province, said Cunningham “worked quietly and unobtrusively behind the scenes, providing a steadying hand during turbulent times and helped to unite and navigate his party so that it could better reach its goals.”
Cunningham headed the family stockbroking firm, Cunningham Coates, until he retired to his farm last year.
He is survived by his wife Anne, two sons and two daughters. Funeral arrangements were not announced.

Cunningham of Auburn; his mother, Esther (Johnson) Cunningham of Northbridge; a brother, Richard Cunningham of Northbridge; a sister, Joanne Opperwall of Douglas; and a grandson. He was born in Whitinsville, son of John Cunningham, and grew up in Whitinsville, before moving to Douglas. He graduated from Northbridge High School in 1955. He attended Bryant College. He was a Army Veteran.
Mr. Cunningham was a supervisor at Raytheon Co., Waltham, for 32 years, retiring in 1995. He previously worked at Whitin Machine Works, Whitinsville. He was a founding member of the Blackstone Valley Beagle Club. He belonged to the Whitinsville Fish and Game Club and the National Rifle Association.
