Would anyone living/working in #Midleton, #Cork, be kind enough to take a photo of this grave? This online one is too blurry. It is for a sex work history project. Thank you https://www.irishgraveyards.ie/plot?plotno=113&yardid=329§ion=D #sexwork #history

In 2017 a monument was erected in Midleton which paid tribute to the kindness shown by the Choctaw Nation in Ireland's time of need.
In 2022 the Irish lacrosse team pulled out of the World Games and offered spot to a Native American team in recognition of the Choctaw donation. 2/2

On 23 March 1847, the Choctaws Nation took up a donation, raising approximately $170 ($5,000 in today's money), and sent it to the town of Midleton, County Cork for famine relief.
The donation came shortly after the Choctaw Nation had embarked on the Trail of Tears and the selfless nature of the gesture has created an everlasting bond between Irish and Native American people. 1/2
