Kelly Katie,  Born in 1889 died on the 10th of January 1971, aged about 27 years old at the time of the Rising. Served in the Saint Stephen's Green, Royal College of Surgeons and General Post Office areas. She was involved in carrying dispatches and helping with the cooking. Katie Kelly was born in Lehenagh, Cashel, Connemara. Her father and mother J.D.  and Mary Anne Kelly were the Principals of Cashel National schools. So too was her sister. Patrick Kelly the Bard of Connaught and poet of Cashel was a brother.

In 1916 Katie was staying in Patrick’s house on the North Circular Road. Regular visitors to the house and good friends were the Giffords, Grace who married Joseph Mary Plunkett in prison and Nelly who was to be with her through the events of 1916. Another sister Muriel was married to Thomas MacDonagh. Ned Daly visited often. Ned was Commandant at the Four Courts and was shot by firing squad at the age of 25. James Sullivan who was sentenced to death was another family friend. His sentence was commuted. She had met Countess Markievicz on a number of occasions and had been to a party at her house. So she knew her quite well.

It was on Easter Monday morning that Katie found out from a visitor that the Volunteers were fighting the Military in town. The visitor said that the town was strewn with dead horses. She set off immediately for O’Connell Street. She met a Cumann na mBan woman on her way in to lend a hand. Katie decided for her part to look for the Countess Markievicz and offer her services. She eventually found her after a few hours in St. Stephen’s Green. There she gave her name to a volunteer to ask the Countess could she help. The Countess replied that she would be glad to have her.

She returned to her Brother’s house to explain what she was about to do. Nobody tried to change her mind and she set off back. At Phibsboro Bridge she met Seamus O’Sullivan who was controlling the three bridges to the north. Katie got her first dispatch from Mr. O’Sullivan, a message for the GPO. On delivering her message she was asked to stay but insisted she was needed by the Countess.

At the Green the British had found locations from where they were able to fire into the volunteer positions. By mid morning the volunteers including Katie retreated to the College of Surgeons. There she met Margaret Skinnider, from Scotland who was later very seriously wounded. The Commander was Michael Mallin and the Countess Markievicz was Second in Command. Katie was involved in cooking and collecting food and running dispatches. She brought one dispatch from Mallin to the GPO. On one occasion she was in a room where the Volunteers were having tea and had just moved to get something when a bullet struck the wall where she had been standing.

When Commander Mallin surrendered the following Sunday Katie was not pleased.  All the men had to pile up their weapons in front of an English officer. The Commander saw her weeping. He was surprised she was upset until she shouted in frustration: “Let us out and down as many English as we can”. On their way to Kilmainham there were ‘shawlies’ on the street shouting abuse. They stopped at Richmond Barracks. Here the Countess intervened on Katie’s behalf. She explained that Katie was a volunteer and not a member of Cumann na mBan and should be allowed go free. The officer said that she had come wearing a haversack and so must remain with the rest. Katie herself requested to stay to the end whatever that would bring.

In Kilmainham the treatment was cruel. They slept on plank beds. No bed clothes were provided. No change of clothes was offered either. Nellie Gifford was nearby.  They heard shots fired every day. She says some of the girls knew about the leaders being executed but she had no idea at the time. All she managed to eat was a dog biscuit (as she called it), soaked in water. The doctor called to see if she was on hunger strike. She replied that she would gladly have a cup of tea and bread and butter. He promised to get her a cup but alas it never arrived. This went on for two or three weeks when a knock at the door announced that all were to go to the yard. They were to be released. However Katie had to spend another night as it was past curfew. That she said was her longest night in Kilmainham.

Everyone was asked to make a statement before a military officer. All the women were in Cumann na mBan and Katie was last in so the officer presumed she was too. She explained how on Easter Monday when the Rebellion had started she had volunteered her help and joined the Volunteers in St. Stephen’s Green. He was astonished at her putting her life on the line, and commented that it was a miracle that anyone escaped from St. Stephan’s Green alive. The officer, an Irishman said to her that he too wanted to see Ireland free but that the rebellion was not the way to go about it. Katie informed him: “we never got anything from England except what we fought for.” The officer was a Redmondite who Katie believed would have set her free if he could have.

We next hear of Katie during the War of Independence. In 1917 the formidable Alice M. Cashel came to Cashel House, Cashel, Connemara, the home of her brother-in-law James O’Mara. With the start of the War of independence Connemara was becoming more militant.  Alice was a chief Organiser for Cumann na mBan and from her base in Cashel managed to bolster the infrastructure in Connemara, and spread the organisation to Achill, through to Sligo, Leitrim, Fermanagh, Cavan and Donegal.  1919 saw Alice back at Cashel House looking after the O’Mara’s Oyster Fisheries. Before very long she was on the run in Clifden being helped by Gerald Bartley.   Her first task in Cashel was to establish with Katie Kelly an active Company of Volunteers. The members got their instructions from Alice and Katie who reported to Headquarters in Galway. Meanwhile the Volunteers were busy. They were engaged in dispatch carrying and in the control of Poitín (poteen) traffic. They attended fairs and markets and patrolled seizing poitín and destroying stills. It was said the IRA patrols were more efficient than the local Constabulary.

There was a military billet in the Courtyard at Cashel House during this period however the soldiers were not allowed in to the house. The soldiers complained of being treated like dogs so not surprisingly this lead to a visit from the Black and Tans. Alice was in the front room with John Cloherty, leader of the local Volunteers when they saw the Tans approach up the avenue. They headed up Cashel Hill and were reconciled to spending the night there when found by the ever resourceful Katie Kelly who brought them to the comfort of her home.

Eddie Kelly, nephew, son of Patrick the poet; with Katie Kelly. In the background is the painting by Grace Gifford which is in a cell in Kilmainham. Grace who married Joseph Mary Plunkett in Kilmainham the night before his execution ended up imprisoned there herself in 1923 during the Civil War. It was the 11 year old Eddie who smuggled the paint into her when he visited her with his mother. Mary Kelly and Grace were both painters and also great friends. When Grace first received the Civil List Pension in 1932, there was a small sum in back pay included when the cheque arrived. Mary Kelly asked her what she was going to do with the money. To the two women who knew what it was to go without it was indeed a wind fall. “Myself and yourself are off to Paris”, said Grace and indeed that’s how they blew the money visiting the museums and doing sketches around Paris. (Photo Pat Keane)
