My family's tale of the 1916 Irish Easter Rising

My family's tale of the 1916 Irish Easter Rising #EasterRising #IrishHistory

Let’s start the new year with a bit of family lore. I have written about a couple of my maternal grandmother’s brothers – Matthew Jr. and Ernest before, well, here’s a tale about their brother, my great-uncle Frank Deegan. My great-grandparents moved from Dublin to London shortly after their marriage; in fact, Matthew Sr. had already moved to London, secured a place to live, and returned for…

Here’s a series of portraits of the main protagonists of the 1916 Easter Rising, painted for the Irish Independent over the centenary of the uprising. Sixteen leaders were executed in the days following the insurrection. James Connolly - injured in the fighting - was shot in a chair. Countess Markievitz escaped the firing squad, as the British authorities felt the optics of executing a woman would not be good, and thus she lived to see the signing of the Anglo-Irish treaty, ninety-nine years ago yesterday. The treaty precipitated a bloody civil war which eventually led to the birth of the Irish Republic, and its final exit from the United Kingdom. Now Britain is - in a sense - leaving us, which feels a bit like Ringo announcing that he’s about to quit the Beatles. So long, Britain. We’re genuinely sorry to see you go. . These are all available as limited edition prints, by the way, on nowthisilike.com . . #angloirishtreaty #angloirishtreaty #1916rising #irishrepublic #easterrising #padraicpearse #countessmarkievitz #thomasmacdonagh #jamesconnolly #eamonceannt #seanmacdermott #josephplunkett #eoinmacneill #thomasclarke #terencemacswiney #oilportrait #painting #limitededitionprints #artprintsforsale https://www.instagram.com/p/CIgmAZvh-HT/?igshid=5a6sj6ckmrna

Thursday Doors - Cavan County Museum 10

Thursday Doors – Cavan County Museum 10

Welcome to part 10 in the Cavan County Museum series of Thursday Doors. This one is dedicated to a young man in my husband’s family, his grandfather’s older brother, who lost his life in the first world war. His name was Michael O’Neill and he joined the Dublin Fusiliers in September 1914, arriving in France a year later. We don’t have any photos of him except one that was printed in a newspaper…

Vladimir Lenin described the #EasterRising as a “decisive blow against the power of English imperialism”.

Lenin spoke English with an Irish accent, his English tutor was from Ireland.
