释义 |
Early lifeBorn in Lusk, Dublin, Thomas Hand was one of twelve children of Thomas and Catherine (née Kavanagh) Hand. Thomas Hand Sr. was a farmer.[2] Revolutionary activityHand took part in the Easter Rising and fought under Thomas Ashe in Ashbourne. After the rising he was sent to Frongoch internment camp,[3] where he was held from May 1916 to May 1917. During the Irish War of Independence he was on the run and stayed at numerous safe houses. He presided at an Arbitration court in 1920. He was shot on 5 December 1920 at his home by the Black and Tans.[4] The Tans had surrounded his house and he was fatally shot in the head and the chest at a window.[5] His brother Cathal was at home when he was killed and recalled that while being interrogated by The Tans he heard gunshots, when he was finally allowed to go outside he saw his brother's body below a window in the backyard in a pool of blood.[6][7] Hand is buried at Baldungan Castle.[7] LegacyIn the late 1940s a street in his hometown of Skerries, Dublin was named after him.[8] In September 2005 a plaque was unveiled on Baltrasna Lane where he had lived by his niece, Molly Wherity. The Hand, MacGowan and Sherlock memorial in his place of burial, Baldungan Castle cemetery, is named after and dedicated to him.[7] On 23 April 2016 a tree was planted in honour of Hand and two others in Skerries Harps GAA clubhouse.[9] References1. ^{{Cite web |url=https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/birth_returns/births_1872/03262/2195586.pdf |title=Birth certificate of Thomas Hand |website=civilrecords.irishgeneology.ie}} 2. ^{{Cite web |url=https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/119933449 |title=Thomas Hand |access-date=21 January 2017}} 3. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.easter-rising-frongoch.wales/list-of-prisoners-names|title=List of prisoners’ names|publisher=easter-rising-frongoch.wales|access-date=22 January 2017}} 4. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.irishmedals.org/ira-killed.html|title=IRA Volunteers Killed|publisher=irishmedals.org|access-date=22 January 2017}} 5. ^{{Cite web|url=https://civilrecords.irishgenealogy.ie/churchrecords/images/deaths_returns/deaths_1921/05104/4402669.pdf|title=Death certificate of Thomas Hand|website=civilrecords.irishgeneology.ie|accessdate=3 July 2017}} 6. ^{{Cite web|url=http://oldskerries.ie/thomas-hand|title=Thomas Hand|publisher=Skerries Historical Society}} 7. ^1 2 3 {{Cite web|url=http://www.independent.ie/regionals/fingalindependent/news/skerries-honour-for-irish-volunteer-thomas-hand-27770270.html|title=Skerries honour for Irish volunteer Thomas Hand|last=Maddock|first=Fergal|publisher=independent.ie|access-date=21 January 2017}} 8. ^{{Cite book |url=https://books.google.ie/books?id=73ZdDQAAQBAJ&pg=PT20&dq=%22Thomas+Hand+%22+ira&hl=en&sa=X&ved=0ahUKEwjWvv_-tNTRAhVLJcAKHSbuAdwQ6AEIGzAA#v=onepage&q=Hand&f=false|title=Melia and Mike, a Love Story|last=Hooks|first=Patricia|publisher=BookBaby|year=2012|access-date=22 January 2017}} 9. ^{{Cite web|url=http://www.skerriesharps.ie/news/skerriesremembers1916programmeofeventsforcommemorationofthe1916rising|title=Skerries Remembers 1916 Programme of Events for Commemoration of the 1916 RISING|website=skerriesharps.ie|accessdate=3 July 2017}} External links
