Fenian Raids

Thomas D'Arcy McGee

Born in Ireland in 1825, McGee emigrated to the U.S. in 1842 where he joined the staff of the Boston Pilot, an Irish-American newspaper. He became involved with Young Ireland, a political and Celtic revival movement. Moving to Montreal in 1857, McGee was elected to the House of Assembly one year later as an independent favouring reform groups. One of the Fathers of Confederation, he was assassinated on April 7, 1868 for his attempts to discourage the Fenians. McGee wrote extensively on Ireland and Irish problems in North America.
