1916 supplement ‘Rising in the Regions’ a great, informative read

Given that we are colloquially referred to as the Rebel County, your publication, Rising in the Regions, was a very apt and great read on Monday, March 21.

My own grandfather, Sean Scanlan, was captain in 1916 of the Irish Volunteers’ Cork Brigade ‘A’ Company, and featured prominently at the front of the march, in the picture from the Grand Parade, on the front cover of Rising in the Regions.

He also gets honourable mention in the Manchester Martyrs Commemoration parade photo, at the Volunteer Hall, in Sheares Street.
