I just came across your channel. I love Irish history. The suffering and violence that was put upon them breaks my heart but by God the strength and the courage of the Irish people over the ages is awe inspiring . Your videos are wonderful. Thank you¡
Great work lads. I had to move from my home in 1989 to Australia (where l've been ever since) Married into a beautiful Australian family. My niece was staying with us for a while (she was 18) and she asked me "uncle G, why do you have so many books on terrorism?" So lasked her "do you know what is going on in Gaza? " She gave me the correct answer. I told her that for around 800 years Ireland was like Gaza and the West Bank, but the murdering monsters were not the Israelis but were the English. She didn't know what to make of that. So l gave her a copy of 1916 by Morgan llywelyn to read. I explained that the book was considered historical fiction, but all the chief characters and story really happened. She devoured that book and asked if she could borrow the other books by Ms. Llywelyn. I sent her home with 3 or 4 books. But made her promise that if she had any questions she could just call me. She messaged me just the other day to tell me she was finished reading the books, l asked her what she thought. She said the books made her sad and angry, and asked me if l saw any of the things brought up in the books. I was honest with her. She told me she loved me to the moon and back. We can't let a single generation go by without the knowledge of what happened in lreland. To quote Bobby Sands " our victory will be found in the laughter of our children ". I hope you keep up the good work lads.
As a 3rd gen Irish American... Please continue to share. I'm 40, grew up step dancing in my local AOH and NEVER Heard any stories until I started doing my own genealogy and asking questions. Between the mother and baby homes, the history of the finians... I'm fact, I've heard stories since that there were a few more recently immigrated members that would mouth off with particular spirits😜 but I don't ever remember hearing anything. My people were from Castle John and fled to the States in late 1890s and early 1900... That line at least...
Davy Thanks for this vid. I learned so much! Is there anyone or group trying to preserve this house for future generations? Or any of the places that are so important to Irish history? Is or are there people trying to get all of these marvelous places / areas put down on paper for future historians to learn from before these places are gone forever? Thank you so much for giving us so much to enjoy and learn. Your excellent efforts are helping to preserve Irish History and Culture. Once again a true heartfelt Thank You for all that you've done and are doing. Bless you.!
I don't think the government can purchase every building, barn and cow house used in the WoI. It's up to the council, land owners and local people to keep history alive. Check out the Davitt Museum in Sraid, Mayo.
What a stupid comment. I presume you meant "they". And I also assume by that comment that you have a massive chip on your shoulder. Believe me the time for nations is long gone, welcome to the 21st century and be glad that you are living in a country that is part of the largest trading block in the World which is why we now have something that our forefathers could only dream of. Its called an economy.@@valleyboy6627
This is a really great in-depth, historical, on site video Davy! Thank you for bringing us to the actual house that Dan Breen was married in. The actual description of the occupation atmosphere, by the local historian, brings up an even more connected feeling to the scene. Thanks again Davy!
Just watched.. excellent video.. and hearing these stories puts you right there.. when he spoke of the two young lads.. pulled from their home and shot before their parents.. we cried 😭 These presentations explain what we do not learn in schools.. thank you Davy.. ☘️💜💙
Shoutout to you and yours, not only is any Eireann history missing from our British education curriculum but on the rare occasion that it does pop up it’s nothing but contemptuous and continuing dishonesty. #NeitherKingNorKaiser☘️📚 @LIRFB
Here in the U.S. we where not taught anything about this and very little about the one of the worst famines in history and about the same thing about how much help the Irish people were in helping win the civil war for the Northern States, have definitely learned more here on this channel
@@Art-is-craft how many millions of Irish came to the US because of the famine and if we did we weren't told the truth about it, like how the english took the best of the food and sent it back to england
Awsome job, telling, teaching and preserving the history. The world needs more people like you, doing great things for history and mankind. My historical work is here in Michigan collecting and documenting native american artifacts i find in farm fields. Sadly little is really taught in our schools about the first americans who where in Michgan 10,000 years ago. I'm proud and thankful for your work! Great stuff 👏 👍
I have been looking forward to this every since you posted. So glad to LEARN & EDUCATED on what was really happening in the time. Hopefully, it will send a message to others that don't know & should!!! Great content as usual. Brilliant. Thank you!!
Hi Davy, like you I to have a photo of this location of Dan Breens wedding. Never thought it would still be standing.I hope who ever buys it brings it back to its former state and appreciates it historical significance. Keep up the good work and have a great Patrick's weekend. All the best from Co Cork🇮🇪
This house should be bought and kept for Posterity by the Government, a National treasure and thank you for what you are doing to keep the history alive and documented. On another note I remember watching Robert Kee's 'Ireland-A Television History' when I was about Eighteen (around 1980) and was wondering whether you covered this series on your channel and your thoughts. A man I admire for getting the series to air. D
Thx so much lads! That’s fecking fantastic! I feel like I am getting to know my ancestors and their culture and find myself wondering how the culture wasn’t passed down.
Thank you for sharing this very informative article. I’m a yank from New York and always enjoy learning about Irish history and culture. I have been going to Ireland for 45 years, I only missed about 5 times during that time, some years I came home twice in a year. Always enjoyed the music and history you pass on. Keep up the great work. God bless.
This is such a treat to learn this part of Irish history and to visit the actual places brings it all to life in such a tangible way. Thank you Davy for all the time and effort you spend in teaching these history lessons.
I'm not Irish, and I never had an interest in history in my life. I'm just learning Gaeilge, and I'm happy TH-cam recommended your channel. Your work is priceless, the real history should be spoken. Thank you for doing this!
I always find your videos entertaining and enjoyable, they keep my interest and I always feel engaged. Please keep them up, I enjoy learning about Irish History from your channel.
Well done to both of you for keeping this history alive.I have stories from 2 of my uncles who were active here in Mayo. i have 20 acres of forestry that i call Dan Breens wood.i must call down to meet you guys some time,thanks/
Love youre video I showed it to my seventy six year old husband who was long term pow in a British prison in England he served twenty three years brendan dowd so we thank for the historical xxx
Great video, Davy and Tom!! You surely don't know where you're going when you don't know where you're coming from! Great to see these historical places!! Can you please tell me what music that is at the beginning of the video? 🙏☘️

Fantastic piece of history, thank you both. Regarding the so called "famine". That was a gentle euphemism for it. In reality it was a Genocide. Have any of you read Chris Fogarty's book on the subject "Ireland 1845-1850: The Perfect Holocaust, and who kept it 'perfect'" by Chris Fogarty. The food was taken out of Ireland at gunpoint by the British Army while the Irish starved to death.
Another great video big bad Davy Holden could you do some segments on successful IRA ambush s attacks like headford in Kerry dromkeen in Limerick carrowkennedy in Mayo scromogue in Roscommon and modreeny in Tipperary
Davy this was brilliant..can you tell me exactly where this is..i know Dan was from New inn..i want to visit his grave and id love to visit this house...Dan is one of our greatest
Thanks my mother and my grandparents came from Ireland as a English man with the green blood these buildings should be protected for future generations
Great inspiring history Dan Breens book was the first book on the tan war i had the pleasure to read and i think i read it maybe a dozen times since i got it 30 years ago its a shame the education system today gives young people the option to drop history in their education never be ashamed of what we came from weather it be 1920 or 2020 the aspiration for a united Ireland will never change though the method of achieving it has. Keep it going davy brilliant as always
Dan Breen was related to me his son paddy Breen was the image of his father Dan the story we were told by Dan and his son paddy would put shivering down ur spine
My Aunt/ Godmother was married to Dan Breen's nephew, Paddy Breen RIP. The British were also using spotter planes mear the house in Headfort Co Kerry where my aunt and her sister, (my mother) grew up. The IRA also attacked the British at the railway station in Headfort known as the Headfort Ambush.
My Grandfather Was the Caretaker in Fitzgerald Camp fermoy after the Civil War.. He also Served in the Cork No.2 Brigade under the command of George Power. Great History Here Lad's 🇮🇪👍
Yes Mr Gombeen Hunter, I believe that I am real (you are missing a question mark). In what regard are you dissatisfied with life in the Republic of Ireland which has amongst the highest living standards in the world? @@grlfcgombeenhunter2897
We're fine mate. Full employment. We're bleeding loaded compared to the 80s and 90s when a million people hat to emigrate to the UK and US to get work. Glad they took us.
My daughter was born just down the road in Clonmel. I know all the places they are talking about as he best years of my life were in Tipp I'm afraid that whenever I see these vids the main feeling is furious anger against the brits. I can't contain it. Is this what 900 years of fuckupery does to anyone with Irish roots?
Those of us who didn’t live through historical events understand history’s importance more than those who made it do. The need to keep secrets outlives those whom the secrets were intended to protect.
Well say big bad Davy Holden and big bad Hennessy too Dan the breen a legendary leader of Tipperary and many others like Sean treacy dinny lacey Sean Hogan Sean Gaynor Paddy lacken Ryan etc Tipperary played a big part in Ireland war of independence
Come to Belfast Davy hear 1st hand accounts from the men behind the wire some very interesting connections including Tom Williams story living accounts from the time
The best way to preserve this house is to get it occupied by a sympathetic owner, Set up a crowd fundraiser to purchase and preserve it, These historical places must be preserved!
Could you do a show on Manus Moynihan lad in Rathmore Co Kerry. He was a feckin legend. Carried out the Rathmore ambush where they killed 8 Black and Tans. Remember his funeral in the 80s. ( know the family as well. Lovely peeps)
I wonder why south Tipperary was so staunchly republican? Also, west Cork. I hear more about those particular areas than other parts, in relation to nationalist activity. I love seeing these sites.
Very relative today guys, the Patriots voted against the traitors in Leinster House and won a resounding victory for all true Irish people! PS where exactly is the house?
The more I understand our past history the more I understand the dreadful plight of the Palestinian people .I can trace my Irish family roots as far back as the 1600s and even further back to the tine of Cromwell in a small pocket here on the Meath-Westmeath border. How the hell did we ever manage to survive and now we have our ''own'' so called ''government'' to contend with.
The house and site should be preserved and restored for history and future generations of Irish people and historians to come and visit and maybe a visitor's centre to display the Counties great Republican culture and history. Great video Davy. Go raibh maith agat 🍀💚🇮🇪✊
I enjoy your channel but Ireland's past struggles for independence are all for naught as today only 75% of it's residents claim Irish ancestry and the most popular name of newborn males in Galway is Mohammed. Seems to me all Ireland has is a past because there is no real Irish future
I'm from County Derry, and we pretty much get no Irish history. I got most of my information from my parents and their families. I learnt my great Granda Logue was an IRA man from way way back. I also learnt my Granny Lynch had family members who were falsely accused of thing's, (the Guilford four and the Maguire seven). I also obviously learnt of "Bloody Sunday" and the bombings in Ballykelly (where my mammy's family are), the rising sun shooting, the REAL story to the so called "Battle of the Boyne" and MUCH MUCH more. One thing that REALLY annoys me about how we're not taught of our Irish history is that the Protestants here know absolutely didly squat of the truth of what happened. Yeah it's probably the rebel side of me or something, but I believe if all people who should know it's those that actually support the British murdering scum of the earth!! Sorry I'm going major rebel now!! Lol but I hate anything to do with those folk, maybe they're decent now?? I don't know nor do I care but for what they done to our country and our ancestors will never pass my forgiveness, maybe if the Protestants were taught the truth and they came clean, then I might throw in some forgiveness, but the chances of that is beyond slim.
powerful people back then, they would all be proud of you two lads remembering a great people.
Thanks so much!

Or he wanted sex. Fact!
Back then no bure would have sex before getting wed.

The more I understand our past history the more I understand the dreadful plight of the Palestinian people .I can trace my Irish family roots as far back as the 1600s and even further back to the tine of Cromwell in a small pocket here on the Meath-Westmeath border. How the hell did we ever manage to survive and now we have our ''own'' so called ''government'' to contend with.
The house and site should be preserved and restored for history and future generations of Irish people and historians to come and visit and maybe a visitor's centre to display the Counties great Republican culture and history. Great video Davy. Go raibh maith agat 🍀💚🇮🇪✊
Couldnt anyone fix this up? What a shame.
Probably will soon. There's 50k grants for do-ey uppies. Beaut of a house.
I believe someone has bought it recently!
I enjoy your channel but Ireland's past struggles for independence are all for naught as today only 75% of it's residents claim Irish ancestry and the most popular name of newborn males in Galway is Mohammed. Seems to me all Ireland has is a past because there is no real Irish future
I'm from County Derry, and we pretty much get no Irish history. I got most of my information from my parents and their families. I learnt my great Granda Logue was an IRA man from way way back. I also learnt my Granny Lynch had family members who were falsely accused of thing's, (the Guilford four and the Maguire seven). I also obviously learnt of "Bloody Sunday" and the bombings in Ballykelly (where my mammy's family are), the rising sun shooting, the REAL story to the so called "Battle of the Boyne" and MUCH MUCH more. One thing that REALLY annoys me about how we're not taught of our Irish history is that the Protestants here know absolutely didly squat of the truth of what happened. Yeah it's probably the rebel side of me or something, but I believe if all people who should know it's those that actually support the British murdering scum of the earth!! Sorry I'm going major rebel now!! Lol but I hate anything to do with those folk, maybe they're decent now?? I don't know nor do I care but for what they done to our country and our ancestors will never pass my forgiveness, maybe if the Protestants were taught the truth and they came clean, then I might throw in some forgiveness, but the chances of that is beyond slim.
