Dublin Family Gathering talk

On 13 April this year, we held a Boland family gathering in Glasnevin cemetery to mark the centenary of Harry Boland travelling to the US with Éamon de Valera. During the event, a silver cup that was giving to Harry to mark his time in the US was presented to the American Irish Historical Society to be put on display in their building. A portrait of Harry and his appointment credentials as Special Envoy to the US were also presented.

As part of the gathering, I gave a talk on four generations of the Boland family. The text of my speech is now available to download.
