'Leader' of Four Courts Occupation?[edit]

As Ernie O'Malley recounts in The Singing Flame, O'Connor was elected as temporary chairman of IRA leaders at a meeting on 16 Jan. He was also one of the leaders that broke away from Liam Lynch to form a new leadership based in the Four Courts. But McKelvey, not O'Connor, was then elected IRA CoS by the Executive members in the FC, and Paddy O'Brien was military commander of the FC before O'Malley took over. O'Connor being described as "the leader" at the FC was probably in response to his having acted previously as the spokesman for the hard-line IRA faction Billsmith60 (talk) 14:59, 24 November 2021 (UTC)[reply]

Wedding photo.[edit]

Who are the women in the wedding photo? If the photo is to be included in the article surely all the subjects should be named. Too often women are an afterthought in history. IrishStephen (talk) 16:37, 30 August 2022 (UTC)[reply]
