Cumann Na Mban: During the Easter Rising
Cumann na mBan: During the Easter Rising Dylan Savoie Junior Division Individual Documentary Process Paper: 500 words Once I learned about National History Day, I immediately wanted to do something related to my Irish heritage seeing as my mother was born in Ireland. In my research, I found the Easter Rising. Now that I had narrowed my selection down, I began to dig deeper, and I came across an Irish women's group, Cumann na mBan, that helped greatly in the Rising but has gone largely unnoticed in history. I tried to have a wide range of research. First, I began by searching for a video about Cumann na mBan. I had found an RTE documentary on the Easter Rising of 1916. It was in that documentary that I came across Fr. Oliver Rafferty, a professor at Boston College. I was able to obtain his email address, contact him, and we had a phone interview. I searched websites and books at my local and Boston Public Library, taking notes and citing them in Noodletools as I went. The Burns Library at Boston College has the most extensive Irish History collection outside of Ireland, so in January, I went there too and was able to obtain many primary sources. In February, I went to Boston College and interviewed Fr. Rafferty in person. I was able to talk with him and combine what I had learned in my research to understand my topic in more depth than I had before. After I collected my research, I decided that my project would be best represented in the form of a documentary. -

Women Who Answered the Call 1916
Ladies Ancient Order of Hibernians: Remember the Women of 1916 LADIES ANCIENT ORDER OF HIBERNIANS "1 Introduction Over 200 women took an active role in the 1916 Easter Rising. The women participated at all the Garrisons except for Boland's Mill. The roles that the women took included serving as couriers, providing first aid and some in active military activities. Constance de Markievicz was second in Command at the College of Surgeons. Winifred Carney was armed with a typewriter and a weebly and was responsible for James Connolly's dispatches from the GPO. Elizabeth O'Farrell was entrusted with the surrender orders of Padraic Pearse to be delivered to the British and all the Garrisons. Dr. Kathleen Lynn served as a Captain and Chief Medical Officer in the Irish Citizens Army. Kathleen Clarke was a confidante to the Supreme Council of the Irish Republican Brotherhood who entrusted her with the plans for the Easter Rising and with reorganizing the republican movement if the rebellion failed. LADIES ANCIENT ORDER OF HIBERNIANS "2 Molly O'Reilly Molly O'Reilly was a young brave woman. She was chosen by James Connelly to raise the Green Harp Flag of Ireland over Liberty Hall. Molly first went to Liberty Hall to learn Irish Dancing. She heard Connolly speak and was inspired. During the Lock Out in 1913, she carried messages to the strikers from Connolly. After the Howth Gunrunning, she bravely hid under her bed some of the smuggled weapons. During the Rising, Molly served with the City Hall Garrison. She was a courier sending messages between City Hall and the GPO. -

Beyond the Pale: The art of Revolution 01 Constructing Constance ( and some other women ) BY DR FIONNA BARBER DUBLIN: HIGHLANES AND DROGHEDA ARTS FESTIVAL. 2016. Constructing Constance ( and some other women ) BY DR FIONNA BARBER 2 3 Constructing Constance camera’s gaze, took an active role in determining the meanings of her own representation. Both dress and an awareness of the ( and some other women ) power of spectacle played a part, especially in those images intended for public display and consumption. Yet the success he relationships between class, gender and political of Markievicz’ fashioning of her own visual identity takes on T commitment in Ireland at the turn of the twentieth a more complex role in relation to representations of other century were never clear-cut. In the years that followed their women who occupied this world. Too often, the depiction of unstable boundaries shifted and reconfigured in ways that the sole female heroine is sustained by the (relative) invisibility were not entirely predictable at this earlier moment. This was of the many other women also active in the same cause, certainly the case for Constance de Markievicz: born Constance particularly in circumstances such as the Irish Revolution. The Gore-Booth, throughout her life she was variously a daughter availability of state documents such as the Bureau of Military of the Anglo-Irish Ascendancy who married into the Polish History’s Witness Statements, however, has helped to support nobility, a bohemian artist in London and Paris, a militant a new generation of feminist scholarship, intersecting with the revolutionary and finally a politician. -

Doing My Bit for Ireland by Margaret Skinnider
Doing My Bit For Ireland By Margaret Skinnider Published, June, 1917 INTRODUCTION When the revolt of a people that feels itself oppressed is successful, it is written down in history as a revolution – as in this country in 1776. When it fails, it is called an insurrection - as in Ireland in 1916. Those who conquer usually write the history of the conquest. For that reason the story of the “Dublin Insurrection” may become legendary in Ireland, where it passes from mouth to mouth, and may remain quite unknown throughout the rest of the world, unless those of us who were in it and yet escaped execution, imprisonment, or deportation, write truthfully of our personal part in the rising of Easter week. It was in my own right name that I applied for a passport to come to this country. When it was granted me after a long delay, I wondered if, after all, the English authorities had known nothing of my activity in the rising. But that can hardly be, for it was a Government detective who came to arrest me at the hospital in Dublin where I was recovering from wounds received during the fighting. I was not allowed to stay in prison; the surgeon in charge of the hospital insisted to the authorities at Dublin Castle that I was in no condition to be locked up in a cell. But later they might have arrested me, for I was in Dublin twice —once in August and again in November. On both occasions detectives were following me. I have heard that three days after I openly left my home in Glasgow to come to this country, inquiries were made for me of my family and friends. -
