Hi Karen
I’ve posted your request in the Civil War in Connaught post (see here: http://mooregroup.wordpress.com/2007/09/16/civil-war-in-connaught/) where people interested in the topic might get back to you. Like we’ve done for our previous readers letters we’d be happy to post up Peter’s letter which might be of assistance to you.

Hello,
I am a Heritage Studies student, I am trying to gather sources for my Dissertation next year on Executions in the Co.Galway.
Has there ever been a database done on executions. So far, I can go back as far as 1740 The Bodkin Murder’s – Tuam Martyrs of 1923.
I’m just wondering can I go back further than that. I would be grateful if you could send me any information to do with history/excavations of executions in Galway.

Hi,
I have contacted this blog before about executions. This week some of you may have seen an article on P34 Galway Advertiser Kenny’s news entitled “Executions in Galway Gaol”.
I am doing my dissertation on those five cases mentioned in the article. So if can one from this site can help please let me know.
You can contact me at athenrylohis@gmail.com

Is there anyone here who can relate the basic details of a death by shooting which took place in Kilkeel, Headford; perhaps during the Civil War? The victim was in some way connected with the old Kyne cottage that had once been standing across from the Collins cottage, but he had then run past the John and Mary Kyne cottage – and down that boreen about a hundred yards, where he was killed. My mother once wrote a poem about him, the only one I ever saw her write, as she was the daughter of John and Mary. Mom wasn’t quite sure of all the details, or how old she was at the time.
Hi Hamilton – I’ve moved your comment over to our new website and blog at this link here – http://www.mooregroup.ie/2009/04/the-tuam-martyrs-april-11-1923/comment-page-1/#comment-14010 I think that that blog entry is the most likely to elicit a response.
