He was the son of Robert Barnewall, 9th Baron Trimlestown and Margaret Dungan, and was educated in France. In June 1689 he succeeded to his father's title, and was one of the Roman Catholic peers who attended the Irish House of Lords in the Patriot Parliament of 1689.

In 1689 he was a Captain in Viscount Galmoye's regiment and in 1690 he was a Colonel in a Jacobite regiment of foot. Trimlestown was a hostage of the Treaty of Limerick. He was outlawed by the treaty, had his estates seized and joined the Flight of the Wild Geese to France. He was appointed a Lieutenant in the Duke of Berwick's 1st Horse Guards in French service, and died at the age of 22 in a cavalry charge at the Battle of Ortheuville (Roumont) on 8 September 1692.
