#Otd 1916: In the afternoon, Patrick Pearse walked out into O'Connell Street with a small escort and stood in front of Nelson's Pillar. As a large crowd gathered, he read out a 'manifesto to the citizens of Dublin', calling on them to support the Rising.
Ned Dunne managed the mill for the two Wynn sisters, who lived in Cherry Orchard, the original name for Tigroney House. My mother helped Ned now and then. I remember the hanks of wool left out in the bright sun to bleach them.
#Otd 1974: Avoca Handweavers, @avocaireland in #Avoca, Co #Wicklow was bought by the Pratts. Oldest working woollen mill in Ireland (1723) & 1 of world’s oldest manufacturing companies. Began exporting hand-woven rugs & throws to UK & other countries. avoca.com/en/our-history

#Otd 1916: About 1,250 volunteers of IRB, Irish Volunteers, Irish Citizen Army & Cumann na mBan took over positions in central Dublin, launching 6-day long revolution known as the Easter Rising! 12:04, Patrick Pearse read out Proclamation of Independence after seizing the G.P.O..
@lorraineelizab6 My grandparents passed through Ellis Island, too (separatly). Grandmother was so young. Never saw her family again.
@lorraineelizab6 Is that Barry Keoghan holding a rifle front left?
That old devil called Love
Cú Chulainn fell in love with Fand! His wife Emer tried to kill her but when she sees how much Fand loves him she decides to give him up! Fand is so touched by this she returns to her own husband, Manannán mac Lir! It ends by drinking a potion to wipe their memory! #WyrdWednesday
