Michael Barrett (Fenian)
Michael Barrett (184126 May 1868) was born in Drumnagreshial in the Ederney area of County Fermanagh. In his adult years he became a member of the Fenians.
Barrett was the last man to be publicly hanged in England, for his part in the Clerkenwell explosion in December 1867.〔John Pratt, ''Punishment and civilization: penal tolerance and intolerance in modern society'', SAGE, 2002, ISBN 0-7619-4753-1. Chapter 2〕 The bombing killed 12 bystanders and severely injured many more. Barrett had positioned the bomb in a wheelbarrow outside the external wall of Coldbath Fields Prison in the belief that it would bring down the prison wall and allow Fenian prisoners to escape.
==Background==
Michael Barrett was born in 1841.〔(''Anphoblacht'', 25 March 2005 )〕 At the age of 27 he joined the Fenians, which, in the 1860s, was a political movement that dominated Irish politics and defied the Catholic Church and middle-class nationalists who advocated milder approaches. Tens of thousands of Irishmen in both Ireland and Great Britain were recruited into its ranks.
