Flyer for the Fine Gael candidates Clonmel Corporation from 1961 May 30, 2016
From I assume 1961 a flyer for the Fine Gael candidates running for Clonmel Corporation. Denis Burke has a Park in Clonmel named after him. There were two different Patrick Fitzgeralds on the ticket along with Edward Gahan, Patrick O’Callaghan, Patrick O’Connor , Martin Slater and Michael White.
I’m not sure which of the candidates were elected although the ‘E’ beside their names may indicate that they were elected.
Patrick Connor (Scarteen), Teddy O’Connor, Maurice Traynor -Fine Gael – Killarney -1960 Local Elections January 10, 2014
Two flyers from the 1960 Local Elections in Killarney a flyer for Fine Gael candidates Patrick Connor (Scarteen), Teddy O’Connor and Maurice Traynor and also a sample ballot paper from Patrick Connor (Scarteen). Patrick Connor (Scarteen) was elected.
I’ve also included the results from the election.
The O’Connor Scarteens have been involved in Politics in Kerry since the War of Independence.
4 of them have served on Kerry County Council, contesting and winning every election to Kerry County Council since Fine Gael was founded.
Patrick Connor Scarteen also served in Seanad Eireann and Dail Eireann. His brothers Tom and John were Captain and Brigadier General of the Free State Army until they were killed in their house in Kenmare on 9th September 1922.
In 1976 the O formally removed from the name so they be higher up the ballot paper.
There’s a piece on the family and politics here
