An excellent presentation, Michael. You have clearly done a lot of research on this subject.

Michael, Excellent talk. Well researched and brilliantly delivered. Michael Houlihan.

Hi Paul, my grandfather James Hannan from Belfast was arrested in 1917 and was on hunger strike with Thomas Ashe in Mountjoy Prison. He was arrested for preventing police from entering a Sinn Fein meeting in Belfast in 1917. Eamon De Valera was giving a speech in the hall at the time. Is there a list online that documents all of the men that took part in the 1917 hunger strike? Would I find this information in the National archive? Many thanks. Seamus Hannan.

John, Can you tell me if Col.Tom McGrath had more sons other than Kevin, thanks John

Cardinal d'Alton most likely

It's between 1945 and 1959 as Sean T O Ceallagh was President. It looks like an important ecclesiastical event as Archbishop John Charles McQuaid is there. Could it be the installation of Bishop Rodgers in 1955?

That is fascinating. It's obviously at Westbourne, the Bishop's Palace at Ennis. He was one of the giants of the early 20th century in Ireland.

Thank you for creating this! Can you provide the exact location of the ambush and the bridge that the two men were stuck under? James (Jimmy) Kierse is an ancestor of mine

quite informative

Loved it all, Postcards and Music! Thanks for sharing it Jarlath

Great lecture, Thank you,

That was wonderful piece of History on the Forgotten Women of Ireland. Thank you.

Really enjoyed this lecture👍

I intended to say that 1st Western Division came into existence in October 1921 - I said 1922 twice in error! Apologies

Condai un Clare. It's come a long way, the people were friendlier long ago.we visited each other houses back then (the 50's),we helped each other saving the hay & all the farm work, killed the pig and shared the puddings & porkstake.Those were the days.

Very interesting mr power informative well spoken and very well balanced to both sides of the Irish civil war co Clare is a great county beautiful unique and great people

Really great to see the library share this story. John Breen was my grandfather’s first cousin. I visited Kilmihil some years back from America and was pleased to see the memorial in town as well as on the old family property, near the holy well. Thanks!

These are fascinating, lovely little mini lectures, John. I hope you keep them coming.

Actually Kathleen was 18 at the time. She married Billy Rawlings in Ennis after he kept threatening to arrest her for constantly breaking the curfew (running messages for the Volunteers). She brought up four girls and a boy in Francis Street before she moved to London, following the children, in the 1950s. Amongst others in this book Michael Collins wrote ‘to the pike, the sword and the like’. DeValera was in there 3 times but the pages were stolen by priests.

How lovely these brave and proud Irishwomen are getting recognition. Thank you Marie 🙏

Fantastic Rita

An excellent presentation.

Very interesting talk. Some excellent resources are available.

Thank you for sharing this information on Peader Clancy. I am a Grand Niece of Peader. My Grandfather Michael Clancy is Peader's and your Mother's brother. I have known about Peader since I was a young girl. My Grandfather and later my Father, John, told me about him. There was a portrait of him in their house and a newspaper article of his death that Michael always carried in his wallet until his death. Peader has always had a special place in my heart. Now I have shared this with my Grandsons. Peader will always be an important part of our Family History. Many years ago I visited Dublin Castle and visited the room where he was murdered and saw the plaque there. Again, thank you. Mary Clancy McNamee

Thanks for posting this. I look forward to visiting your museum. I only recently learned of my grandparents involvement in the Rineen ambush - it was a jaw-dropping piece of bravery by poor people against the world´s strongest army! I hope there will be some celebration of Rineen this year (2021) given the significance it had in Irish freedom.

Good talk. You should make a longer and deeper vid. Thumbs up from a fellow creator 😅

Its a pity there are no names to go with the pictures. so many great flowers thanks for the video.

Thanks for posting

Thanks Pat Shannon for a fantastic round up of the life of Peader Clancy, a hero of mine since I first saw that portrait of him in Cranny school. We had heard a lot about him at home but your piece fills in all the gaps. A great Cranny man and I'm sure you are proud to be his Grand nephew.

Thank u very much .that was very very interesting. And I loved hearing about a great son of Co Clare. And how fought and died so Ireland may be free .may he rest in peace.and may God hold him in they palm of his hand

Well done Mike
