Executed on this day March 14th 1921 ~Frank Flood age 19 Irish Republican Volunteer.

Frank Flood a very good friend of Kevin Barry, Frank was a UCD student who was active within society life on campus, as well as being a member of the Irish Republican Army. He was one of the ‘Forgotten Ten’ buried in Mountjoy Prison.

Frank Flood is a name which may not be instantly recognisable to some in the way the name of Kevin Barry is, yet he is another young UCD student who gave his life during the War of Independence, executed at only nineteen years old. One of the ‘Forgotten Ten’, Flood not alone studied at UCD but was active within its society life. Todd Andrews, another UCD student active in the republican movement, perhaps put it best when he wrote in his memoirs that “as Kevin Barry passed into the nation’s mythology, Frank Flood’s name is scarcely remembered.”

Frank Flood and siblings in his family were firmly republicans, and of the eight Flood boys most were active within the Volunteers. Sean Flood, the eldest of the boys, had served five years in a Scottish jail for his republican activities, and died soon after his release. Young Frank Flood was educated at O’Connell Schools, run by the Christian Brothers and located on the North Circular Road. It was here he first met Kevin Barry, with whom he formed a friendship . Flood ended up winning a university scholarship in 1918 which saw him enter the Engineering School of UCD, while Barry was a medical student. While at the college Frank became active within the Literary and Historical Society. There was a strong republican presence in UCD at the time, though as Todd Andrews noted “there were a number of students who were known to be Irish Republican Army men, but unless they were in the same Company or Battalion, they never spoke or associated with one another on the basis of their common allegiance.”

Flood had been captured while attacking the Dublin Metropolitan Police at Drumcondra on January 21 1921, and the event is popularly known as the ‘Drumcondra Ambush’ today. Flood, at only nineteen years of age, held the role of First Lieutenant ASU (Active Service Unit) of the Dublin Brigade.He had led an assault which saw three Volunteers lose their lives (two on the scene), and five others sentenced to death for their role in that attack, with Flood himself found with a gr***de in his pocket. He was charged with High Treason, found guilty, and executed by hanging on March 14th 1921 at Mountjoy Prison. Kevin Barry had gone to his death in much the same way in 1920, and it is said Flood requested to be buried as close as possible to his former friend and comrade.
