The site is back online but there are issues with some search pages and the gallery. I am working on correcting these.
The
Executions of 1916
 |
There were 16 executions as a result of the Easter Rising. General Maxwell declared martial law and gave the order to execute. This proved to be a bitter pill for the people of Ireland and support for the executed grew. The first were James Connelly tied to a chair and then shot. Roger Casement was convicted of treason and hung in England. |
