What is recorded here
James O'Mara is a birthplace in County Limerick, Ireland. Perhaps the boy born there in 1873 watched carts rattle past before he ever entered a parliament chamber. Maybe the ordinary field became a stage for laws and ledgers because he refused to leave it behind. Imagine his hands still dirty with local soil when they signed national papers.
Why this person is known: Irish politician and businessman (1873–1948)
