Scullabogue Barn massacre

The Scullabogue massacre was an atrocity committed in Scullabogue, near Newbawn, County Wexford, Ireland on 5 June 1798, during the 1798 rebellion when insurgents massacred up to 200〔Lydon, James F. The making of Ireland: from ancient times to the present pg 274〕 non-combatant men, women, and children, most of whom were Protestant, held prisoner in a barn which was then set alight.〔Dunne, Tom; ''Rebellions: Memoir, Memory and 1798''. The Lilliput Press, 2004. ISBN 9-781843-510390〕 A participant, Thomas Cloney, put the death count at 100.〔''A personal narrative of Those Transactions in the County Wexford, in which the Author was engaged, during the awful period of 1798'' - Thomas Cloney (James Mullen Pub. Dublin 1832) p. 220 et al〕
==Background==

A farm and out-buildings in the townland of Scullabogue (also spelled ''Scullaboge''; (アイルランド語:Scolbóg)) were used as a staging post for rebel forces before the 1798 Battle of New Ross. The main camp for the rebels was located a mile from Scullabogue on top of Carrigbyrne Hill.
The rebels had rounded perceived loyalists of both sexes and all ages who were mainly held in a barn to prevent their supplying the military with intelligence of rebel movements. At dawn on June 5th, the bulk of the rebel army attacked the nearby town of New Ross leaving behind a small number of guards in charge of the captives. The battle at New Ross was a heavy defeat for the rebels who lost almost 3,000 men. Survivors who had fled the fighting had reached Scullabogue with news of the terrible losses while the battle still raged violently.〔John Mitchel: The History of Ireland from the Treaty of Limerick. Glasgow, Cameron & Ferguson, 1859. pp. 293-294〕 News was also brought of a massacre by soldiers of 70 rebels trapped in the town who were burned alive and whose screams were reported to be audible above the din of battle by a loyalist witness, James Alexander.
