Ireland's Ghost Lord and most acclaimed spectre, Gerald Fitzgerald (Gearoid Iarla - 3rd Earl of Desmond) was intentionally a deep mystery to his people. Learn Gearoid's enthralling story as part of the "Ancient Irish Culture series" at the Cutler Library in Plainfield, Tuesday Nov. 12 at 6:30 p.m.
He is known as the only Lord in England's "Peerage" who has no date of Death... but rather "Disappeared." His mysterious beginnings, his ties to the goddess Áine and his everlasting presence beneath Loch Gur still enthrall Irish adults and children alike.
His impact on Irish history and American politics is rather unexpected... inasmuch as JFK's grandfather used his real connection to the Fitzgerald dynasty to help secure his win as Boston's first Irish mayor. And his myth and influence helped inspire the Irish people to throw of the British Crown.
