Records from the Field General Courts Martial held in the wake of the 1916 Rising are now available online.

The files have been made available by the National Archives following the purchase of the digital records by Universities Ireland.

Records of the 15 executed leaders are available, along with essays  by Dr. Fearghal McGarry on the general context of the trials, and by Dr. Myles Dungan on their dubious legality.
