Talk:Williamite War in Ireland
From Wikipedia, the free encyclopedia
[edit] Séamas an Cac
Is there a source for the assertion that "because of this desertion James became known in Ireland as 'Séamas an Cac' or 'James the Shit'. "? --Theo (Talk) 19:36, 28 Apr 2005 (UTC)
I didn't put this in here, but its a very well known element of Irish folklore. Two sources I can give you straight away are "1690 Battle of the Boyne" (2003) by Padraig Lenihan and "Ireland and the Jacobite cause - A fatal Attachment" by Eamonn O Ciardha (2002). Jdorney
[edit] Sister?
[...] some political figures hatched a conspiracy to invite William of Orange to invade England and to assume the Throne jointly with his wife, James' sister Mary.
Was she not his daughter (as is also previously stated)?
