SeÃÆ'án O '? ahony (also John O'Mahoney ) (October 20, 1872 - November 28, 1934) was a Sinn FÃÆ'à © Ireland in politicians and members of First and Second DÃÆ'áil.
She was born as John Mahony at Logan Street, Thomastown, County Kilkenny, to James Mahony, a tailor, and Mary Cantwell. A successful entrepreneur he was a tea trader and a commercial traveler. His company, John O'Mahoney & amp; Co, located at Middle Abbey St., and destroyed during the 1916 Easter Rising. It was then rebuilt at Parnell Square. He later bought and operated Fleming's Hotel located at 31-32 Gardiner Place, Dublin. A close friend of Arthur Griffith, he became an organizer for Sinn FÃÆ'à © di and was elected to Dublin Corporation for a party.
She participated in Easter Rising and then interned at Frongoch and Lincoln Jail. He remained with Sinn FÃÆ' à © in after it was re-established as a republic party in Ardfheis 1917.
He was arrested during the German Plot of 1917 and imprisoned in Lincoln Gaol in England. While in prison he was elected Sinn FÃÆ' à © in MP to Fermanagh South in the 1918 general election. He was released from prison in 1919 and attended the First Dà © nil trial. He was recaptured at Sinn Fà © à © at the office in November 1919 and jailed for three months in England. He will be arrested several more times during the Anglo-Irish War and his hotel is used as a meeting place by Sinn FÃÆ'à © in members all the time.
He was elected in the 1921 elections for the Second DÃÆ'áil for Fermanagh and Tyrone. As a result of the Irish Government Act of 1920 this election was to provide membership of two assemblies: the House of Commons of Southern Ireland and the House of Commons of Northern Ireland. Eight seats of the Fermanagh-Tyrone constituency are one of the few in the Northern Ireland House of Commons. As a member of Sinn FÃÆ'à © in disowning both her assembly and the other five Sinn FÃÆ'à © at TDs continue to attend DÃÆ'áil. During the debate on the Anglo-Irish Treaty, he opposed the ratification of the documents and voted against ratification. He leaves DÃÆ'áil with ÃÆ' â ⬠° amon de Valera and other Anti-TD Agreements.
As the only member of the Second DÃÆ'áil who was not elected to the Southern Ireland House of Commons, his status at Third DÃÆ'à il in 1922 was unclear. O'Mahoney was not invited to attend the opening of the Provisional Parliament. De Valera desperately wants him to be present because if he is denied entry it will show, in the minds of Anti-Covenant supporters, that the assembly is not DÃÆ'áil throughout Ireland. In the end O'Mahoney was not present, but his case was taken by Laurence Ginnell. He remained an abstainist parliamentarian for Stormont until the Northern Ireland election, 1925, when he did not run for re-election.
He remained with Sinn FÃÆ'à © after the 1926 split, serving in the party of Ard Chomairle until his death.
He died in 1934. His funeral was attended by representatives of Sinn FÃÆ'à © in, Irish Republican Army, Fianna FÃÆ'áil, Fianna ÃÆ'â ⬠ireann, Cumann na mBan, and MnÃÆ'á na Poblachta. She is buried in Glasnevin Cemetery.
He survived by his wife, and a son, Malachy, and a daughter, MÃÆ'áire.
