England really owes Ireland a profound apology. The wrong they did can never be righted. So many brave men and women who gave their life for Ireland in Glasnevin should NEVER be forgotten. God Bless Ireland

It's way too late for an apology, what they done cannot be forgiven by Irish people.

What a powerful documentary.....

I finally went to the cemetery in December 2023 after it hadn't worked out the year before due to time constraints. I was overwhelmed by the size, the atmosphere and the many graves and monuments - and the stories behind them. I spent a long time at the cemetery, but didn't see everything by far. The next time I'm in Dublin, the cemetery will be on my list again.

I was there recently refreshing my parents grave marker which had gotten very dishevelled looking. But walking through the cemetery you can't help but to stop and look at some of the very Ye Olde graves and read the inscriptions on them One thing that is very obvious on many of the graves from the early 19 th century and onward's was how young people were when they died. I saw one sad grave marking whereby a father and husband lost his wife and his six children, all at very young ages . His wife in her 20's and his children aged from 2 months to 7 years of age all dying one after the other but not in that order, and he lived into his early 60's . What that poor man went through is truly unbelievable.. Many adults died in their early 40's to early 50's. You see very few that lived till their 70's to 80's . Children in those days died from diseases that we can cure with one visit to the doctor nowadays and most children being inoculated at an early age from those diseases like Whooping cough, measles, T.B, Scarlet fever etc etc etc.

Thank you for your comment. It's sad to see so many die young.

Very intreasting and informing, thanks for posting

Really well done video, thanks for uploading.

Two of my ancestors were part of the Repeal with O'Connell,... The well known Charles Gavin Duffy and the lesser known, his uncle, Fr Thomas Tierney who is buried there

This is my favourite cemetery of all. I'm so proud of my own family members who fought for the freedom of Ireland from the British oppressors. Every time I visit, I find new graves so many fascinating graves. Glasnevin is beautifully tended.

I visited the cemetery in 2016 and to say I was mind blown would be an understatement.surrounded by so much history and going into Daniel o connells tomb was very educational

Thank you, well done.

I just found this youtube video. By a strange coincidence I was actually in Dublin on by second trip to Ireland and visited GLASNEVIN the day after this video posted!!!

Del Boy Duffy never misses a marketing trick... he brought his own book to his Glasnevin protest.

5 generations of my family - not the famous... they are the ones who dwelled in the tenements.. the Corporation Buildings, Sheriff St. ... St. Laurence Mansions... Beneath the surface of the ground they are intermingled with the famous.

What took 50 years? The assessment done in 1971 suggested a quick repair. I suppose it's fitting to be 'shrouded' in mystery.

Was not Michael Cusack the origin of "The Citizen" in Ulysses?

Behan's statue - 'Royal' (not Grand) Canal. Probably mixed up with Kavanagh's? Kearny's "Amhrann na b'Fiann/Soldier's Song" 'national' (not state) anthem.

Thomas Barry Sullivan was not English. Both his parents were Irish. Why would he be buried in Ireland if he was English? BTW at 14:06 the barrister is not Michael Collins but Pádraic Pearse.

My 3rd Great Grandfather Thomas Glynn is buried there in a multiplot 07 March 1883 is when he died and lived at 87 Prussia Street Dublin married Sarah Jane Scott In Derrykeighan in Antrim 09 Feb 1857 Thomas was 45 years of age died from consumption i wish i could find his date of birth and birth location i think is Bullaun Galway and i think his parents were Patrick Glynn and Mary Tannyan 🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼🙏🏼

This is a amazing production for a amateur video producer I assume. Blending in the right music with the perfect amount of silence and informative voice over narration. However, the narrator needs to spit a bit more frequently as it sounds like his mouth is packed with saliva thats rolling off his lips and into his lap, covering the microphone used in a layer of liquid. lol.. I can hear it so strongly I had to say as if that aspect was cleaned up this would be considered a Hollywood product.
