County Cavan in 1911

On the eve of the First World War, the Irish independence movement was in full swing. The divisions in Ulster were particuarly strong. Ulster had been colonized by the British in the 1700s and the population was deeply divided on independence from Britian. The southernmost county of Ulster is County Cavan, the seat of the Reilly Family.
