“One of the first major IRA attacks on an RIC barracks during the Black and Tan war took place in Ballytrain, County Monaghan, in February 1920.

Among those who participated in the attack were three men who would later become well known and who took very different political paths – republican guerrilla leader Ernie O’Malley, socialist organiser and author Peadar O’Donnell and the local IRA commander Eoin O’Duffy, Ireland’s would-be fascist dictator.”

The photo of you is taken really class, my respect. You have made this really great, such photos speak one clear language. Congratulation. Pictures to some expressions.

If Eoin O Duffy was not already named I would have guessed Risteard Mulcahy - they are very alike? EDIT - It seems that the picture I used above as Mulcahy is in fact General Eoin O'Duffy see (The one I used was incorrectly listed as Mulcahy) - from Paul O'Farrell

It is always interesting to note that when a new military or paramilitary organisation is formed how there are so many generals and brigadiers. Usually out of all proportion to the size of the organisation.

The first article returned by the BNA with 'oconnor', 'oduffy' and 'baby'. Irish Independent - Saturday 31 March 1934

Gen. O'Duffy visited Macroom to-day to act as sponsor at the christening of the baby son of Dr. Edward F. O’Connor, Medical Officer of Macroom Hospital, which took place at the Parish Church, Very Rev. Canon Barrett, PP, V.F., officiating.

The baby was christened Owen Patrick O’Duffy O’Connor.

Miss Nellie Manning was also sponsor.

The account in the Hull Daily Mail (28/3/34, under the heading Blue Shirt Baby adds that Dr O'Connor was a local Blueshirt leader. and that
General O'Duffy was escorted to the church by a party of Blueshirts, and blue favours were worn by most of the people in the crowd, which gave an enthusiastic reception.
