Great Irish People Soldering Abroad

Killorglin’s WW1 Servicemen and Women, including Jack Galvin who was shot at Ballyseedy 30/09/1922. Jack Galvin’s white wooden memorial cross is located on the Ballyseedy Road, east side, opposite the lodge and entrance gate to Ballyseedy Castle (now Ballyseede Castle Hotel). The cross is located within a walled turning circle, built c1880 for use of horse-drawn-coaches entering or leaving Ballyseedy Castle gateway. Background: John "Jack" Galvin of Killorglin had killed a pro-treaty officer during an attack on a bridge at Castlemaine. Following his arrest, on 30-Sep-1922 he was among a group of IRA prisoners being transferred from Killorglin Barracks to Tralee by Irish Free State soldiers. Travelling in convoy on the Killorglin-Ballyseedy Road via Farmer's Bridge, the lorries initially halted by Ballyseedy Wood near the entrance gate to Ballyseedy Castle, the road there having been blocked by felled trees. The prisoners, having first been set to work clearing the road, were afterwards walked on about 50 yards to Ballyseedy crossroads to wait for their vehicles. When the lorries arrived Galvin was noticed to be missing. The following day his body was found "behind a tree" or "behind the ditch" close to the place where the lorry had at first halted by Ballyseedy Wood

''If readers have information about family members from Killorglin Parish who served during World War One, I would be most grateful if you could contact the Killorglin Archive Society.''  Stephen Thompson.
