  • The War of Independence in County Kilkenny: Conflict, Politics and People
    The War of Independence in County Kilkenny: Conflict, Politics and People Eoin Swithin Walsh B.A. University College Dublin College of Arts and Celtic Studies This dissertation is submitted in part fulfilment of the Master of Arts in History July 2015 Head of School: Dr Tadhg Ó hAnnracháin Supervisor of Research: Professor Diarmaid Ferriter P a g e | 2 Abstract The array of publications relating to the Irish War of Independence (1919-1921) has, generally speaking, neglected the contributions of less active counties. As a consequence, the histories of these counties regarding this important period have sometimes been forgotten. With the recent introduction of new source material, it is now an opportune time to explore the contributions of the less active counties, to present a more layered view of this important period of Irish history. County Kilkenny is one such example of these overlooked counties, a circumstance this dissertation seeks to rectify. To gain a sense of the contemporary perspective, the first two decades of the twentieth century in Kilkenny will be investigated. Significant events that occurred in the county during the period, including the Royal Visit of 1904 and the 1917 Kilkenny City By-Election, will be examined. Kilkenny’s IRA Military campaign during the War of Independence will be inspected in detail, highlighting the major confrontations with Crown Forces, while also appraising the corresponding successes and failures throughout the county. The Kilkenny Republican efforts to instigate a ‘counter-state’ to subvert British Government authority will be analysed. In the political sphere, this will focus on the role of Local Government, while the administration of the Republican Courts and the Republican Police Force will also be examined.

Irish Volunteer Activities, Kilkenny Brigade, 1917 21. Conditions, if any, Stipulated by Witness. Nil. File No S.2938. Form BS.M.2 STATEMENT BY MR. TIMOTHY HENNESSY, DANESFORT, CO. KILKLNNY. I was born in the year of 1891 at Threecastles, Co. Kilkenny, and I was educated at the local national school there. My father, who was a farmer, took a keen interest in national affairs, and in addition to the usual weekly papers, periodicals, such as, "The Irish and were read in our home. Peasant" "The Nation", The family also took an active interest in the Gaelic Athletic Association, and in the early years of the present century, my eldest brother, Edward, captained the Threecastles hurling team to win the County Kilkenny hurling championship, and then went on to captain the county team in the All Ireland championship series. In the year of l9O4, I was apprenticed to the grocery, wine and spirit business in the retail and wholesale establishment of Messrs. M.L. Potter Co., High Street, Kilkenny. After a few years there, I became interested in the Irish industrial revival movement and also in the promotion of Gaelic games in Kilkenny city. This brought me into contact with such men as the late Alderman James Nowlan, then President of the G.A.A., the late Patrick Gorcoran and the late Peter De Loughry. Although I was not then aware of it, all these men were active members of the Irish Republican Brotherhood.

THOMAS TREACY, 30. Dean Street. Ki1keny, Brigade O/C Kilkenny Brigade I.R.A. In August 1951 I prepared a statement for the Bureau of Military History of the history of the Irish Volunteers in Kilkenny from the time of their formation in March l9l4 up to and immediately after the time of the Rising in April 1916. In this present statement I propose to give, as far as I can now recollect, the story of the Volunteer movement in Kilkenny City and County from the period following the Rising to the time of my last arrest and internment in November 1920, together with my experiences as Vice Commandant and Acting Commandant of the prisoners in Ballykinlar Internment Camp during the year 1921. As mentioned in my previous statement (l9l4-l9l6) there were approximately 120 members of the Irish Volunteers in the City and County of Kilkenny in 1916. Thirty-one of these, including myself, were arrested immediately after the Rising and interned in jails and internment camps in England. All these prisoners were released by August of 1916. I don't know the number of members of the Irish Republican Brotherhood that were in Kilkenny City and County at that time as I was not a member of that organisation, but I would say that after deducting the number of I.R.B.
