The "Black Donnellys" were a family of Irish settlers to Ontario. Five members of the family were murdered by an armed mob in the township of Biddulph in February 1880 and their farm was burned down, the culmination of long-standing conflict between the family and other residents. No-one was ever convicted of the murders, despite two inconclusive trials. ==The Donnelly family== * James Donnelly - patriarch (March 7, 1816–February 4, 1880) * Johannah Donnelly - (née Magee, or MacGee) his wife, and mother of all the children (September 22, 1823–February 4, 1880) * James Donnelly Jr. - son, (1842–1877) died of an illness or possibly shot〔(【引用サイトリンク】 title=Canadian Mysteries, the Massacre of the Black Donnellys )〕 * William Donnelly - son, born with a clubfoot (1845–1897) * John Donnelly - son, the first child born in Canada (September 16, 1847–February 4, 1880) * Patrick Donnelly - son (1849–1914) * Michael Donnelly - son (1850–1879) killed in a barroom brawl〔 * Robert Donnelly - son (1853–1911) * Thomas Donnelly - youngest son (August 30, 1854–February 4, 1880) * Jenny (''Jane'') Donnelly - the last child, and the only daughter (1857–1917) * Bridget Donnelly - Patriarch James' niece from Ireland (May 1, 1858–February 4, 1880) (Dates in bold mark those killed in the massacre) 抄文引用元・出典: フリー百科事典『 ウィキペディア(Wikipedia)』 ■ウィキペディアで「Black Donnellys」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
