Dan Milner Irish Invasion of Canada - 1866 (11) Irish Invasion of Canada - 1866 04 Sep 98


In May 1866, a U.S. Civil War veteran, Col. John O'Neill, led a force of 600 across the US-Canada border for the purpose of establishing an Irish Republic. He took the British garrison at Fort Erie and, later, defeated a British force of 1400 at the Battle of Limeridge (also known as the Battle of Ridgeway). The campaign was brought to a close by U.S. intervention. He made a second attempt in 1870, Does anoyone have any songs from this chapter in history? Many thanks, Dan Milner
