The green harp flag of Ireland It was first recorded in 1642 It became the flag of the 1798 rebellion &, for many, a national standard So why didnโ€™t it become the Irish National Flag? (1)

We trekked and picked until the cans were full, Until the tinkling bottom had been covered With green ones, and on top big dark blobs burned Like a plate of eyes. Our hands were peppered With thorn pricks, our palms sticky as Bluebeard's. Blackberry-Picking, Seamus Heaney

I am currently researching and writing a book on the women of Ennis Cumann na mBan which will focus on their lives before, during and after the revolutionary period. I would love to talk to the relatives of these women to bring their stories out of the shadows....
