George D. Cahill Papers MS.1993.041 - Page 4 - Biographical note

George D. Cahill (circa 1820-1893) was born in on April 24 to Peter Cahill and Mary O’Neil. By 1850 he was in Quincy, Massachusetts, working as a bootmaker, and in 1852 he became a naturalized United States citizen. His first wife, Mary Moriarty, died in 1861, and he was remarried in 1868 to Mary Preston. In the 1870s, Cahill was working as a grocer in Quincy. He was active in local Irish organizations, acting in a variety of positions in the Fenian Brotherhood, including Shawmut District Centre (leader), Quincy Centre, member of the financial committee, and secretary. In 1881 he helped found the Quincy branch of the Irish National Land League, and in 1883 was one of the founding members of the Irish National League of America, Quincy branch. He served as secretary for both organizations. After retiring from the grocery business, Cahill worked as the sexton of St. John’s Church in Quincy. According to his obituary in the Boston Globe, Cahill, who had been ill, died December 30, 1893 after collapsing at a city council meeting. It was noted that he was one of Quincy’s best known citizens and a staunch Democrat. In relation to his work with the Irish National Land League, Cahill was described as “a ready debater and writer.” Sources “Death of George Cahill.” Boston Daily Globe, December 31, 1893. 1850 United States Federal Census Roll.

Historical note

George D. Cahill Papers MS.1993.041 - Page 5 - The Fenian Brotherhood was the American branch of the Irish Republican Brotherhood, founded by in Ireland in 1858. In the United States, the Fenian Brotherhood was led by John O’Mahony and . Local groups were called “Circles,” and their leader designated the “Centre.” raised money and purchased arms to send back to Ireland, and in 1866 and 1870 led two failed invasions of . Plagued by infighting and factionalism, the organization gradually dwindled until its formal disbanding in 1886. The Irish National Land League of the United States was the American arm of the Irish National Land League, which aimed to reduce unfair rents in Ireland and help tenant farmers buy their land. It was founded in Ireland in 1879, with as president. A Boston, Massachusetts branch was organized in 1880, and a Quincy branch established in 1881. In 1883 at the Convention the Irish National Land League and the Irish National League of America merged under the name of the Irish National League of America. The Irish National League was founded in October 1882 in Ireland by Charles Stewart Parnell after the suppression of the Irish National Land League there. An earlier organization with the name of the Irish National League of America may have existed as early as 1880; in 1883, the Irish National League of America subsumed the Irish National Land League of the United States, as outlined above. The Irish National Publishing Company was established in 1873 in New York, N.Y. and published two newspapers, the American Gael and the New York Sunday Citizen. Despite backing from members of the Fenian Brotherhood and high aims of “beautifully printed matter” appealing to “Irishmen of education, general respectability, or intelligent patriotism,” the business suffered managerial and financial setbacks and was sold at a sheriff’s auction in New York in October 1874. It was sold twice more in 1875, but continued to publish through 1876. Sources: Fenian Brotherhood Records and O'Donovan Rossa Personal Papers.

George D. Cahill Papers MS.1993.041 - Page 6 - Scope and Contents note

The George D. Cahill papers contain correspondence to and from Cahill in his capacity as a local leader of several Irish nationalist organizations, including the Fenian Brotherhood, the Irish National Land League of the United States, and the Irish National League of America. The collection includes fliers, circulars, published speeches, and ephemera related to Irish causes, as well as membership and financial records for the organizations with which Cahill was involved. Correspondence and organizational records reveal the everyday activities of these organizations, especially of the Fenian Brotherhood and its ill-fated newspaper venture, the Irish National Publishing Company. The organizations' financial affairs, social events, and meetings are well-documented, as is their factionalism, infighting, and political maneuvering. Other Irish organizations such as the Clan-na-Gael, the United Irish Brotherhood, and the Combined Irish-American Societies of Massachusetts are represented in these papers, although more sparsely. Notable correspondents include Patrick Andrew Collins, William M. Curry, Mary Francis Cusack (Nun of Kenmare), Thomas B. Fitz, Anthony A. Griffin, John W. Keogh, Francis F. Millen, Jeremiah O'Donovan Rossa, John O'Mahony, John Boyle O'Reilly, Joseph W. Paul, and George F. Train. The papers date from 1845 to circa 1921. Publications in the collection dating from after Cahill's death in 1893 may have been collected by the collection's donor, D. A. Brosnan, and also relate to Irish issues.
