In this town their children grew up. The youngest, Jeremiah, was a very noble, high spirited boy who loved Ireland. When he was twelve years old Daniel O'Connell visited Rosscarbery. Jeremiah was the first person who shook hands with him and welcomed him.
When he grew up he became a clerk in a shop in Skibbereen. He always wanted to do something for his country so he joined the Fenians in the year of 1864 and became the great patriot Jeremiah ODonovan Rossa.
