Edmond Greaney [also 'Edward', 'Eamonn/Eamon' and 'Greany' on historical documents] (c.1893 – 25 April 1923) was a farm labourer and IRA soldier who fought on the anti-Treaty side in the Irish Civil War in north Kerry.
[1] He had also previously been captured and imprisoned by the National Army but had promised not to take up arms against Free State troops again.
On 16 April, after an ambush on a Free State raiding party, Greaney, Lyons and the four other members of the column present went to the cliffs at Clashmealcon and hid in Dumfort's Cave there after the National Army's 1st Western Division received reinforcements and followed them.
The siege ended on 18 April when Lyons fell onto rocks from a rope provided by the troops, was shot multiple times and left to the elements.
Greaney is one of "the seventy-seven" made famous by Dorothy Macardle in, memory of those executed by Free State troops.
