Information

File relates to Joseph Barrett’s receipt of a military service pension in respect of his

service with the Irish Volunteers and IRA in the service periods between 1 April 1917

and 30 September 1923 and during the War of Independence, Truce Period and Civil

War. Applicant also claimed unsuccessfully for service in the periods between 1 April

1916 and 31 March 1917. Joseph Barrett claims membership of the Irish Volunteers

from 1913. He states that he mobilised at the time of the 1916 Easter Rising when he

was serving as a Company Officer Commanding but had no active service at that time.

He states that in September 1916 he was appointed Treasurer and Quartermaster for

Clare Brigade Irish Volunteers. From 1916 to 1919 he claims involvement in training

and organisational work, preparations for resisting the imposition of Conscription,

arms raids and acquisitions as well as election work in counties Mayo and Armagh. In

March 1919 Joseph Barrett was appointed Adjutant of the newly formed Mid Clare

Brigade Irish Volunteers and states that he was involved in organisational and training

work for the new brigade. He also claims responsibility for organising attacks on British

military huts in July 1919 and states that he himself took part in one at Inch. He also

states that he took part in occasional sniping attack on British forces during 1919 and

1920. He further claims responsibility for training and organising those involved in the

disarming of a party of British military in Ennis on 23 June 1920. Joseph Barrett states

that he was appointed Brigade Director of Operations and Officer in Charge of all

Brigade Active Service Units in September 1920. Barrett and/or references state that

he was responsible for organising and training for and/or participated in IRA

attacks/operations at: Ruan RIC Barracks (October 1920); Monreral (10 December

1920); Kilmaley (December 1920); Spancil Hill, Moyrisk, Cranagher and Decomade –

charge of a party of 130 men in place to attack British forces (Auxiliary Police Force) at

Toona in June 1921 – this operation appears not to have come off. Joseph Barrett was

appointed Divisional Adjutant of the newly formed 1 Western Division IRA during the

Truce Period in August 1921. He states that during this time he attended and/or was in

charge of a number of training camps. During February and March 1922 he took

charge of a number of posts taken over from the evacuating British forces. Following

the split in the IRA Joseph Barrett states that he was appointed Director of Training

and Operations in the 1 Western Division anti-Treaty IRA in [May 1922] – references

however give the date of this appointment as July 1922. As such he states that he was

responsible for organising IRA Active Service Units in the Division as well as

positions/defences at Ennis, Corofin, MiltownMalbay, Lisdoonvarna, Ballyvaughan,

Galway, Gort, Loughrea, Kilkee and Kilrush. It is also stated that Barrett was sent on

special duty to Dublin on two occasions, was sent to occupy the Clarence Hotel there

on 29 June 1922 and returned to Clare the following day.

During the Civil War Barrett and references state that he had service in counties Clare,

Limerick and Galway and took part in operations against the National Army at:

Edenvale and Latoon Bridge (July 1922); Lissycasey and Crusheen (August and

September 1922), Darragh – date not on file; Kilmaley (November 1922); Kilnamona

(December 1922); and at Darragh, Inch, Kilmaley, Kilnamona and Tullycrine – exact

dates unclear from file. He also claims involvement in the capture of a party of

[National Army] officers at Kilnamona in March 1923 - references appear to give the

date for this as October 1922. Joseph Barrett claims that he was appointed IRA

Divisional Officer Commanding in May 1923 and was in charge of the escort for Eamon

de Valera when de Valera was arrested in Ennis in August 1923. Joseph Brennan was

not arrested or captured and states that he remained on the run until May 1924.

Information

File relates to Michael Breen’s unsuccessful application under the Army Pensions Acts

in respect of the death of his son John Breen who was shot and killed by British forces

on 18 April 1920 at Kilmihil, County Clare. The Army Pensions Board found that they

were unable to recommend an award. Applicant made a further unsuccessful

application for an award under subsequent Army Pensions Acts. Michael Breen's

means exceeded the statutory sum of £40. Also includes unsuccessful application

from Bridget Melican, sister of deceased, for an award. Bridget Melican deemed not

to be dependent on deceased. Sean Liddy, in his Military Service Registration Board

reference, states that Breen led an attack on an RIC (Royal Irish Constabulary) patrol

in which Breen and an RIC Sergeant were killed. One or two RIC Constables were also

wounded. It is claimed in file that Breen joined the Irish Volunteers in March 1917

and that by the end of 1917 he was appointed Company Quartermaster. Further

claimed that he was arrested in March 1918 and released after two months.

Following the re-organisation of the West Clare Brigade Breen was appointed

Quartermaster of 2 Battalion. Deceased was also involved in raids for arms. Applicant

received £100 from the White Cross Association.

of what he claims were orders from the Brigade leadership based in Limerick to surrender all arms to

the British forces. He was involved in the reorganisation of the Irish Volunteers from 1916 and claims to

have represented County Clare at that organisation's convention in Dublin at Easter 1917. Arrested and

sentenced to two years imprisonment by a British Military Court-martial in [July] 1917 Austin Brennan

was imprisoned until [early 1918] at Cork, Mountjoy and Dundalk prisons where he took part in a

number of hunger strikes and was also forcibly fed on a number of occasions. From 1919 he was

involved in training and organisational work and following the formation of the East Clare Brigade he

became its Commanding Officer and also served with his area's Flying Column (Active Service Unit). As

such he was involved in the planning, preparation and execution of all IRA operations and attacks within

his Brigade area. Claimant and references refer to attacks at Scariff, Cratloe and Glenwood - exact dates

‘File relates to Patrick Brennan's receipt of a military service pension in respect of his service with the

Irish Volunteers, IRA and National Forces for part or all of the periods between 1 April 1916 and 31

March 1923 during the 1916 Easter Rising, War of Independence, Truce Period and Civil War. Prior to

the Easter Rising, having returned from London in November 1915 at the request of SeánMacDermott,

subject worked as an Irish Volunteer organiser in County Clare. On Friday 21 April claimant carried

despatches and relayed verbal orders intended for the Galway Brigade as well as the Crusheen and

Ennis Battalions of the Irish Volunteers. Brennan claims his orders were to take the town of Listowel,

County Kerry to allow the partial distribution there and further transportation by rail to Limerick, of the

arms to be landed from the Aud. Following this he was to hold Ennis in County Clare, thereby allowing

the further transporation by rail of arms to Galway. While in the process of mobilising Volunteers in

Carrigaholt, County Clare, Brennan received the countermanding order and returned to Limerick. He

claims that along with his brother Michael, he spent the remainder of the week endeavouring

unsuccessfully to persuade Limerick Irish Volunteers leadership either to rise or to give their arms to

them for use of Meelick, and Newmarket on Fergus, Irish Volunteers companies. He was subsequently

interned until December 1916. From January 1917 until December 1918 as well as serving as a member

of the Executive of the Irish Volunteers, claimant served as Brigade Officer Commanding, Clare Brigade.

Subject was also imprisoned from July to November 1917 and was forcibly fed during a hunger strike.

From January 1919 to the end of the War of Independence, following the restructuring of the Irish

Volunteers in Clare, the claimant served under his brother Michael Brennan in the East Clare Brigade

and in the Brigade Flying Column. Having joined the Garda Síochána in February 1922 subject served as

Officer Commanding of the armed Active Service Unit, as well as Senior Assistant Commisioner of that

organisation until his resignation in September.

Claimant then served in the National Army first as Deputy Divisional Officer Commanding and later as

Divisional Officer Commanding of the 1st Western Division. Brennan held the rank of Colonel

Commandant when he left the National Army in December 1922 to take up the position of

Superintendent of the Oireachtais.’ (Ireland, Military Service Pension Index, 1916-1923 ancestry.com)

Irish Volunteer units in the Limerick District which comprised all of counties Limerick and

Clare as well as part of County Tipperary. He states that in May 1916, after the surrender

of arms to the Lord Mayor of Limerick, he was arrested and held in Limerick Prison for

been Officer Commanding 1 Battalion, Mid Limerick Brigade, IRA. In February 1917 he

states that he was arrested deported and interned at Wetherby, Yorkshire, England

under D.O.R.A. Regulations until escaping and returned to Ireland the following May. He

claims to have been also been arrested in October 1917 until released from Mountjoy

Prison following a hunger strike in November the same year before being rearrested in

February 1918 and held in Mountjoy, Dundalk, Belfast and Arbour Hill prisons before

being deported to Lincoln Prison in England where he was held until released in March

1919. He states that he was once again arrested in February 1921 and held until August

the Mid Limerick Brigade Staff IRA and in spring 1922 was attached to Divisional

Quartermasters Staff of the 2 Southern Division. At that time he also claims to have been

involved in an exchange of arms at Birr Castle for use in Northern Ireland. In March he

claims to have been involved in the seizure of Barracks and positions in Limerick by the

anti-Treaty IRA and became Mid Limerick Brigade Quartermaster, seizing ex-British

property in Limerick and money from local banks for use of IRA Divisional Headquarters.

He claims that he took part in fighting against National Army forces in Limerick City and

County in July and August 1922 following the outbreak of the Civil War. In November

1922 he states that he became Minister for Economic Affairs in the Republican Cabinet -

later becoming the Republican Minister for Finance as well as Director of Finance for IRA

Subject

Information

File relates to Martin Corry's receipt of a military service pension in respect of his

service with the IRA in the service periods between 1 April 1921 and 30 September

1923 during the War of Independence, Truce Period and Civil War. Applicant also

claimed unsuccessfully for service in the periods between 1 April 1916 and 31 March

1921. Martin Corry claims membership of the Irish Volunteers from 1914 and states

that he mobilised at the time of the 1916 Easter Rising. During the War of

Independence he served as an IRA Company Officer Commanding. He claims

involvement in fund raising, the breaking of communication links, destruction of British

military stores and the capture of a British escort - exact date and location not on file.

He also mobilised for a number of aborted IRA attacks/operations.

Corry states that he took part in IRA training camps during the Truce Period and joined

the National Army on 1 February 1922. He served throughout the subsequent Civil War

and continued to serve with the Defence Forces through the Emergency (Second

World War) and according to documentation on file was still serving in 1953 - exact

date of retirement and rank at that time not on file. Martin Corry's rank at the time of

his application for service pension in 1925 and the original award of a Certificate of

Service from the Minister for Defence in 1927 was that of Captain. However he was

awarded pension at Grade C or Commandant rank as this was the rank held by him in

the Defence Forces on 1 January 1953 when he elected to receive his pension under

the Military Service Pensions (Amendment) Act, 1953. See sub-sections (2) (b) and (2)

(c) of the Military Service (Amendment) Act, 1953.

File includes: original handwritten material signed and submitted by Martin Corry in

support of his service pension application; material relating to Martin Corry's National

Army and Defence Forces service record; signed handwritten and typed statements

regarding Martin Corry's service from Garda Siochana Superintendent Sean Liddy,

Major General Michael Brennan, Commandant Liam Haugh and Mícheál Ó Loingsigh;

handwritten notes - partially dated 3 March 1927 - of [evidence (1 page) given by

Martin Corry before the Board of Assessors, Military Service Pensions Act, 1924];

material relating to the settlement and closure of Martin Corry's service pension

account following his death on 21 November 1976; material relating to Kathleen

Moore Corry's receipt of a widows' allowance as widow of Martin Corry from 1976

onwards; and material relating to the settlement and closure of Kathleen Moore

Corry's widows' allowance following her death on 10 September 1986 - this material

partly closed for reasons of data protection.

Notes

An application from Mrs Margaret Daly of Cooraclare, County Clare for the award of the Service Medal on behalf of her brother Patrick Joseph D’Arcy, who it was stated was shot without trial by the IRA on suspicion of “spying” on 17 June 1921, was received by the Department of Defence in [December] 1946 (2pp undated). The application is accompanied by a letter in manuscript from Daniel P. Sheehy, onetime Company Commander, Cooraclare Company and later Battalion Commander, 3 Battalion, West Clare Brigade, IRA (2pp dated 25 November 1946). Chief Superintendent Sean Liddy of the Sligo Leitrim Division of An Garda Siochana, onetime Brigade Commander 3 Brigade, 1 Western Division, IRA certified on 12 December 1946 that D’Arcy was “not a member”-“he was tried, found guilty and executed, (Charge) Enemy Agent”. File also contains letter from Patrick Shanahan, T.D, Clare (1p dated 8 February 1947) addressed to Oscar Traynor, T.D., Minister for Defence enclosing copies of sworn afidavits (sic) and copy witness statements not on oath in support of the application by Mrs Daly (18pp). Also included on file is a Memorandum from Colonel Dan Bryan (Director Intelligence, Defence Forces) (1p dated 24 April 1945) addressed to Mr Boland (Private Secretary to Minister for Defence] in which he (Bryan) refers to investigations in the case which the Taoiseach “asked me to conduct”, outlines the results of his investigation to date and attaches copy statements from two serving officers (formerly Old IRA). Correspondence from Col Bryan to Minister [Boland] (2pp dated 29 May 1945) is recorded as being shown to the Taoiseach on 4 June 1945 and there are further reports from Col Bryan on file, including related correspondence. On 3 May 1946 (sic), the Secretary, Department of Defence (General P. McMahon) notified the Finance Officer that the Minister directed that the case be referred to the Referee. Mr. J.J. Horgan, Finance Officer, Department of Defence passed the file to the Secretary, Office of the Referee, classifying all material as Secret (1p dated 5 May 1947). A separate and associated file, created by the Office of the Referee, contains copy letters, requests for original statements, statements in manuscript and type from persons associated with the case/incident or otherwise contacted by the Secretary to the Referee for information, summons for witnesses to appear, notes and other related correspondence (85pp). The file includes the sworn evidence given before the Referee and Advisory Committee by the following persons, in the order in which the evidence was taken, commencing on 20 May 1947 and concluding on 8 July 1947 (210pp typed):Chief Superintendent Sean Liddy, Mrs Margaret Daly, Mr John Daly, Mr. John Darcy, Deputy Patrick Shanaghan (sic),

715

Major (Lt Col) Conor Whelan, Commandant T. Martin, Commandant T. Marrinan, Commandant Liam Haugh, Commandant Joseph Barrett, Mr. Martin Chambers, Mr. James Spellissy, Mr. Michael Melican, Mr. Stephen Hanrahan, Mr. Daniel P. Sheedy and Mr. Michael Russell. The Referee (Justice Mac Firbishigh) reported his findings to the Minister for Defence and the recommendation of the Referee and Advisory Committee members (Robinson and Brady) was that no medal should issue in the case “solely” on the grounds that no satisfactory evidence had been forthcoming to prove that Patrick D’Arcy was a member of the Forces at any time later than 1920 or that he rendered continuous service during any of the months in 1921 preceding his death in June 1921 on 31 July 1947 (3pp). Due to the fragile nature of the file it is available in a printed format only.

Donnellan and references state he joined the National Army on 2 February 1922 and

served with 5 Brigade 1 Western Division, as Second Lieutenant until 3 March 1923

Subject

Information

File relates to Michael Downes’s unsuccessful application for a military service

pension. File also relates to subject's receipt of a Service (1917-1921) Medal without

Bar in 1944. Applicant claimed membership of the Irish Volunteers and the IRA from

1915 until 1923. Michael Downe states that he joined the Irish Volunteers in Doonbeg

village, County Clare under the command of a “Gaelic teacher” named Foley and in

1917 re-joined the organisation in Shragh near Doonbeg, County Clare under the

command of Patrick Keane. Michael Downes claims that Martin Chambers took over

as O/C of the Company and kept this position until the signing of the Truce. Attached

to B Company, 3 Battalion, West Clare Brigade, IRA, it is stated that the applicant took

part in general activity in County Clare during the War of Independence (January 1919

– July 1921) including: an ambush at Moyasta that was called off at the last minute

(September 1919); the destruction of roads and bridges; arms-raids; sentry duty; mail-

raids and police duty. In June 1920, Michael Downes states that he ordered the arrest

of a boy named John Tubridy who was planning to emigrate [?]. On 12 July 1920, the

applicant claims that he ordered the arrest of a man named John McMahon at Einagh,

County Clare and brought him before a Sinn Féin magistrate at Shragh, County Clare.

On 8 February 1921, Michael Downes states that he was ordered to visit the farm of a

man named Cleary at Mountrives, County Clare and prevent cattle from being taken

and sold. In August 1920, the applicant claims that he was ordered to go to Einagh and

settle a land dispute between two families named Haugh.

Taking the anti-Treaty side in the IRA split, the applicant claims he took part in the

usual activities during the Civil War (June 1922 – April 1923). States that he was

arrested on 24 April 1923 by the National Army, court-martialed at Home barracks,

Ennis, County Clare on 1 May 1923 and imprisoned in Limerick Jail until 15 June 1923

when he was released on medical grounds.

File includes signed handwritten statements regarding subject's service from Michael

McGrath (1943); Thomas Lillis (1943) and Martin Chambers (1944).
