What is recorded here
Séamus Burke is a birthplace in County Waterford, Ireland. Perhaps the boy born there in 1893 carried the red soil of that county into every chamber where he later spoke. Maybe the rooms of power felt smaller when a Waterford voice filled them.
Why this person is known: Irish politician (1893–1967)
