Commemorative Plaques on Irish houses
« on: Sunday 06 April 08 15:00 BST (UK) »
The Institute of Physics has erected blue plaques in various locations around the United Kingdom and Ireland in order to celebrate physicists who lived or worked in the locality http://ireland.iop.org/activity/awards/Blue_Plaques/page_17318.html

The Ulster History Circle place plaques on houses in Northern Ireland. Since they unveiled the first plaque ninety six have been erected www.ulsterhistory.co.uk/plaques.htm

Does anyone know who are responsible for Plaques in the Republic of Ireland as there's one on a property in Co. Kildare for Sean T. O'Kelly? When did Sean T live in Kildare? Wikipedia says he was born at Capel Street, Dublin, in 1882, and was educated at the Richmond Street Irish Christian Brothers School?
