Oral History

Seamus McRory

Seamus McRory charts his GAA experiences from South Derry to Armagh to Belfast and down to Longford. He helped to set up his local club in the 1950s, inspired by the success of neighbours Tyrone and his native Derry in football. He became further involved in the GAA whilst at school in Armagh, and again as a teacher in Belfast and Longford. He coached vocational schools' teams and also became involved with the GAA at an administrative level. Seamus also found time to write about the GAA, and he later researched and published several books on different aspects of the association. His involvement with the GAA has been constant throughout his life, and it means a great deal to him.
