Invincibles Reinterment Campaign: National Graves Association

Mr. Aidan Lambert:
Kilmainham Gaol has that map and has had it for a number of years. I made the point that a rough sketch map identified the location of the Mountjoy Ten. It was in the possession of the National Graves Association, which passed it over to the State, which was able to find the bodies quite easily from that map. This one is sort of more detailed. The south-west corner would be the starting point. That is where the first burial of Joseph Brady was. A number of newspapers and books at that time suggested that was the location.
