My great grandad got interned for 3 months, but there's some confusion about where, Frongoch probably but other places were used. He didn't take part but my teenage gran and her sister did and weren't interned, so it's assumed that it was punishment for their activity.

I had not seen this interview before.
Just a snippet on instagram...Kathleen Clarke interviewed about her last moments with her husband Tom Clarke before his execution... her brother Ned Daly was also executed.



I must try to find the full interview..
