Dromahane () is a village located south west of the town of Mallow, County Cork, Ireland on the R619 regional road. Centred on a main crossroads, the village overlooks the Blackwater Valley. The village is part of the parish of Kilshannig. Thomas Russell is referred to as “The man from God knows where” and, as it happens, he was born in the village on 21 November, 1767.〔James Grove White, Cork Historical and Archaeological Society, 1905. Historical and topographical notes, etc. on Buttevant. Page 291.〕 He was a founding member of the United Irishmen and was hanged in 1803 in Downpatrick gaol for his involvement in uprisings against the British. An old graveyard (Kilshannig) is located north of the village and this is where Daniel O’Connell's maternal ancestors are buried. Also, the parents of Thomas Croke, after whom Croke Park is named, are buried here. There are also ringforts in the area and Dromahane is close to Dromineen Castle. ==Location and transportation== 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「Dromahane」の詳細全文を読む スポンサード リンク
