Body of murdered Irish woman is found at Duffy’s Cut site in Pennsylvania

bootsjoyce4 is a bit incorrect on the place of the Molly McGuire's hanging; they took place in Maunk Chunck (now Jim Thorpe)Pennsylvania in the Carbon County Prison. The image of Jack Kehoe's handprint, as he pronouceded his innocence, can still be seen on the wall of his cell. I've seen; scientists can't explain it.

Sad that the discrimination, murders, and racism against the Irish (Italians, Slovs, and other non-WASPS) were written out of the history books. Things like this go to show that what happened cannot be forgotten.

This is a non story in America. White Americans were not subject to inhumane conditions. Blacks and Hispanics were subjected to inhumane conditions. If unhumane conditions exsisted for White Irish then, current discrimination against Whites would be questioned. This is why America is turning Tea Party.

Very interesting. Iwas born and raised in Girardville, Pa.TThe home of Jack Kehoe. His bar is still there and we have our AOH meetings there. People come from all over the world to this place to Learn about the beginnings of the Labor Movement. The industrial revolution was run by anthracite coal mined by Irish catholics under brutal persecution from the Welsh and English coal barons

I'm related to Jack Kehoe, of the Mollies, and I couldn't be prouder. I know that some people say what happened was justice but I say justice denied. Those men were railroaded, by the railroad.

Fifty some yrs. later, not too far from this place the "Molly Maguires" were hung by the neck in Pottsville,Pa The prosecutor was the Reading Railroad. They worked in inhumane conditions in the anthracite coal region of Pa.. Is there a railroad connection to violence in both cases. The rich coal and railroad barons destroyed any hope for better working conditions.. A mule was worth more to them than an Irish miner.

Heartbreaking.
