Aantekening
Martin Savage (Irish: Máirtín Sabhaois; 1898-19 Dec. 1919), from Ballisodare, County Sligo, was an officer in the Dublin Brigade of the Irish Republican Army. As a 17 year old he took part in the 1916 Easter Rising in Dublin and fought with Pearse and Connolly in the GPO. He was captured by the British Army and imprisoned in Richmond Barracks. On 30 April 1916 he was deported to Knutsford Detention Barracks in Cheshire, England along with 200 other captured prisoners. Upon his release Savage returned to Dublin and became a Lieutenant in the 2nd Battalion of the Dublin Brigade. He was well known in republican circles and was acquainted with Dan Breen, Seán Treacy and Seán Hogan. On 19 December 1919 Savage was killed during a gun battle after an ambush on Lord French at Ashtown during the early stages of the War of Independence.
