Flyer for Monica Ryan -Sinn Fein – 1967 Local Elections Dublin January 15, 2011


First off many many to the sender who notes…

“I’m not sure when it dates from, but Moira is now in her 90’s and lived on Caledon Road, East Wall, the mother of Mick Ryan and also of Nicky Ryan – manager of Enya.
Both Moira & Mick were on the Ard Chomhlaire together in the early 70’s the only time I think that a mother and son were on together.”

I gather the leaflet is from the 1967 Local Elections. In the early 1950 she was involved with Clann na Poblachta.
