On Sunday 14th November, prison officers commemorated the men who took part in one of the most significant events in the struggle for independence – the 1917 Mountjoy hunger strike.
Cuimhneamh an Chláir, the voluntary group that digitally records, archives and shares the memories, folklore, traditions and oral history of county Clare, will host a special event on Tuesday featuring Joe Kenneally.
Oidhreacht an Chláir presents a lecture, The War of Independence: events in Miltown Malbay and district, 1920-21 by Dr Pádraig Óg Ó Ruairc this evening (Saturday, October 16) at 8.00pm in the Community Centre, Miltown Malbay.
A project which saw over 200 archival terms entered into the Irish language lexicon earlier this year, has now led to those terms being officially recognized by the International Council on Archives.
