"Lol the real rebels were from Dublin! "
The Cork ones wont like that and seen as it was the only county in Ireland not to totally surrender to martial law during the war of independence , and If Im not wrong it was the British senior military staff whom called it the rebel county . |

It wasn't uncommon for young Irish girls to marry British solders from England,
So now the only real rebel Co is south Armagh lol |
