Martin Corry (Irish politician)
Martin John Corry (12 December 1890 – 14 February 1979) was a farmer and long-serving backbench Teachta Dála (TD) for Fianna Fáil. He represented various County Cork constituencies〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Mr. Martin Corry )〕 covering his farm near Glounthaune, east of Cork city. He was described by Michael Leahy, his IRA commandant as the Cork No 1 Brigade's 'Chief Executioner' and is believed to have been responsible for at least 27 killings, mostly in the neighbouring parish of Knockraha.〔James Fitzgerald, Foras Feasa na Paroiste, A History of Knockraha Parish (Cork 2005)〕〔Micheal Leahy, Ernie O'Malley Papers UCD, P17b/108.〕〔In the Name of the Republic, TV documentary, TV3(Ireland) 25 March 2013.〕 He was a founder member of Fianna Fáil in 1926, and among its first TDs after the June 1927 general election. He was returned at every election until he stood down at the 1969 election.〔(【引用サイトリンク】title=Martin Corry )〕 Corry was active in farming issues, serving as Chairman of the Beet Growers' Association in the 1950s. In 1966, upon the resignation of Seán Lemass as Fianna Fáil leader and Taoiseach, Corry was among the Munster-based TDs who approached Jack Lynch to be a compromise candidate for the party leadership.
==IRA activity==
Corry was a senior member of the Cork No. 1 Brigade of the Irish Republican Army during the Irish War of Independence (1919–21).〔 He took the anti-Treaty side in the Civil War (1922–23). In 2007, it was reported that Corry's farm had been the suspected site of the execution and burial place of several people considered to be pro-British agents, spies, or informers.〔 Among these was Michael Williams, an ex-Royal Irish Constabulary officer abducted by the IRA "Irregulars" on 15 June 1922 for his alleged role in the shooting dead in 1920 of Tomás Mac Curtain, the Sinn Féin Lord Mayor of Cork.〔
