Daniel O'Connell (Jnr) (1816 – 14 June 1897) was one of seven children (the youngest of four sons) of Daniel and Mary O'Connell of Ireland. He served in the British Parliament from 1846 to 1847 as Member of Parliament (MP) for Dundalk, from 1847 to 1848 as an MP for Waterford City, and from 1853 to 1863 as MP for Tralee. He contributed major changes to Irish politics during his time in Parliament such as opposition to slavery, Catholic emancipation, support of repeal of the union, and was an advocate for the rights of a tenant. O'Connell was forthright about his opinions on slavery.[1] Being a Member of Parliament (MP), he used his position to his advantage while trying to advocate for the abolishment of slavery while simultaneously supporting several anti-slavery movements. O'Connell (Jnr) also aimed to abolish the restrictions on Catholics holding public office. Daniel O'Connell[2] in 1823 set up the Catholic Association which campaigned for Catholic Emancipation. This association was kept alive by Daniel O'Connell (Jnr) following in his fathers footsteps in the realm of politics.[3] He was elected to the British House of Commons as an Member of Parliament (MP) for County Clare but was initially denied access to his seat because of his religious status as a catholic based on the Test Act.[4] In 1829 the Catholic Emancipation was passed in April which allowed Catholics to sit in Parliament. Daniel O'Connell (Jnr)'s efforts as well as his fathers efforts were vital in achieving this important victory in Irish history. Support for Repeal of the Union was a movement that O'Connell supported which aimed to repeal the Act of Union 1800. This was the act that merged Ireland and Great Britain. O'Connell's efforts remained as the groundwork for future campaigns of Irish independence as the repeal was not achieved during his lifetime.[5] Finally, O'Connell was a strong advocate for the rights of Irish tenant farmers. He supported various movements and amendments which had the aim to improve the conditions and rights of tenancy in Ireland during the 1800s.[6] He was also a moderately successful brewer, producing a brand called "O'Connell's Ale", which for a short time tried to compete with Guinness in popularity. "O'Connell's Ale" was produced by the Phoenix Brewery in Dublin which was originally founded in 1778 by Charles Madder but was then acquired by Daniel O'Connell (Jnr) in 1831.[7] The brewery was located on James's street and had a large production capacity which allowed "O'Connell's Ale" to have local and export success for a period of time. Although it the beer gained some popularity, against Guinness it was nothing leading the brewery to end up facing financial difficulties and was therefore sold in 1906 to John Darcy & Son Ltd.[8]
His brothers Maurice, John and Morgan were all MPs.
Daniel O'Connell (Jnr) passed away in Bedford on 14 June 1897. He was 81 years of age. His contributions to politics and brewing left a lasting impact on Ireland.[9]
