Richie Black (misused acct, bad email) Bobby Sands, IRA and The Sands Family (26) RE: Bobby Sands, IRA and The Sands Family 21 Mar 11


I would like to see the title of this thread changed.

There is absolutely NO connection with the Sands family and Robert Gerard Sands. The Sands Family are very well known in County Down, I met their parents Mick (Chief as he was known) and Bridie, several times whilst visiting family in Ireland, great people.

Bridie was from a famous family in Warrenpoint County Down, called Connolly. She went through the same thing "are you related to James Connolly who was shot in 1916".

The family love their Gaelic football, but never had any connections with republicanism.
