Sean Fitzgerald's Funeral The funeral of Sean Fitzgerald took place from Dungarvan to Kilrossanty, and beforehand the British issued an order that only 20 people would be allowed to follow the remains, and the military, with fixed bayonets, were there to see that the order was adhered to. The people however, defied the rule and a large number walked in the cortege as it left Dungarvan for Kilrossanty. Grawn Ambush |
