MessageThank you for this site. My grandfather was a Mitchelstown Volunteer. Unfortunately he died in the US when my father was 9, so most of the stories died with him. He had the name “Bosco” on his tombstone. My grandmother said it was a code name from when he and his column hid in a circus. He was Bosco the Clown. Is there any record of such a thing? I have not been able to validate this. His real name was James Walsh. His brother, Maurice, was also a Volunteer. Any guidance on where to look appreciated.

MessageI am redesigning corkgen.org, about to launch the remodel for its 10th anniversary, and am pleased this site exists to include among the History links.

My granddad was in the 3rd West Cork brigade, Bredagh Company.
