Daniel O'Connell Jnr

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 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. His brothers Maurice, John and Morgan were all MPs.
