Patrick Everard (died 31 March 1821) was a Roman Catholic prelate who served as the Archbishop of Cashel and Emly from 1820 to 1821.
Patrick Everard was born in Fethard, County Tipperary, attending a classical school locally. He was educated at the University of Salamanca in Spain where he moved to in 1776, he was ordained in 1783 and obtained a doctorate of Divinty from the University of Bordeaux in France. Following his studies, he was the President of the Irish College in Bordeaux and Vicar General to the Archbishop of Bordeaux until the French Revolution drove him out of the country. He spent some time in England as principal of a lay academy at Ulverstone, Lancashire, which he had purchased from the Jesuits, before becoming the president of Maynooth College in Ireland.
Everard was elected the coadjutor of the Archdiocese of Cashel and Emly by the Propagation of the Faith on 19 September, and was approved by Pope Pius VII on 29 September 1814. He was also appointed the titular archbishop of Mitylene on 4 October 1814, and received episcopal consecration from Bishop William Coppinger of Cloyne and Ross on 23 April 1815.
