        History

        John Lennon was the eldest son of John and Mary Ann (née Browne) Lennon of Killeenmore , Killeigh, County Offaly. Not much is known of his political life, except that by the time he was 23, he was interned in Rath Camp, at The Curragh, County Kildare during the War of Independence in 1921 and again in Tintown Camp after the Civil War in 1923. When he was released he returned to Tullamore and worked in the family's public house in Harbour St, Tullamore, where he met his future wife, Margaret ('Maggie') Corcoran, who also worked at the premises. They married in 1933, but John died some years later in 1937 following a farming accident at the homeplace in Killeenmore.
