These plots often hold the bodies of casualties of earlier 19th and 20th-century campaigns by organisations such as the [[Fenians]] or the [[Irish Republican Army|IRA]].<br /> <br /> Most republican plots are owned and maintained by the [[National Graves Association]]. Notable Republican plots include those at [[Glasnevin Cemetery]] in [[Dublin]], and [[Milltown Cemetery]] in [[Belfast]], the Belfast graveyard was the site of a fatal [[Milltown Cemetery attack|attack on a Republican funeral]] in 1988 by a [[Ulster loyalism|loyalist]] paramilitary, [[Michael Stone (loyalist paramilitary)|Michael Stone]].<br /> <br /> Republican plots are the focus of annual commemorations by Republican groups and also by political parties such as [[Fianna Fáil]], [[Workers&#039; Party (Ireland)|the Workers&#039; Party]] and [[Sinn Féin]] and its offshoots, each group commemorating its own fallen, as Fianna Fáil commemorations focus exclusively on members of the Old IRA. Commemorations take place on dates such as [[Easter Monday]] (to commemorate the [[Easter Rising]]), and the anniversaries of the death of those buried in the plots.<br /> <br /> Annual commemorations also take place at the grave of [[Theobald Wolfe Tone]] at [[Bodenstown]] in [[County Kildare|Sallins, Co Kildare]] and at the graves of the leaders of the Easter Rising at [[Arbour Hill Prison]] in [[Dublin]].<br /> <br /> ==Sources==<br /> [http://cain.ulst.ac.uk/issues/commemoration/leonard/leonard97.htm &#039;Memorials to the Casualties of Conflict: Northern Ireland 1969 to 1997&#039; by Jane Leonard]<br /> <br /> [[Category:Irish Republican Army]]<br /> [[Category:Burial monuments and structures in Ireland]]<br /> [[Category:Irish War of Independence]]</div>
