The name of baby Martha O'Neil has been added to the Dublin and Monaghan bombing memorial - almost four decades after the event.
Dublin City Council announced that the name was added to the memorial in Talbot Street today. Edward John O’Neill was one of those killed in the bombing in Parnell Street on 17th May 1974, in which two of his sons were badly injured.
Edward O’Neill’s wife, Mrs Martha O’Neill, was six-months pregnant at the time. Three months later, and as a result of the trauma, Mrs O’Neill’s baby, Martha, was stillborn at full-term.
