Joseph McGarrity
Joseph McGarrity (1874–1940) was born in Carrickmore, County Tyrone, Ireland. He emigrated to the USA in 1892 at the age of 18 and settled in Philadelphia, Pennsylvania. From 1893 until his death he was a leading member of the Clan na Gael organisation. He also was a successful businessman; however, his business failed on three occasions, twice due to embezzlement by his business partner. McGarrity helped sponsor several Irish Race Conventions and founded and ran a newspaper called ''The Irish Press'' from 1918-22 that supported the War of Independence in Ireland.
==Early years==
During the First World War, while the USA was still neutral, McGarrity was involved in the Hindu–German Conspiracy; he arranged the ''Annie Larsen'' arms purchase and shipment from New York to San Diego for India.〔''Irish Republicans and the Indo-German Conspiracy of World War I.'' Matthew Erin Plowman.New Hibernia Review 7.3 (2003) 81-105〕
When Éamon de Valera arrived in the USA in 1919 they struck up an immediate rapport and McGarrity managed de Valera's tour of the USA. He persuaded de Valera of the benefits of supporting him and the Philadelphia branch against the New York branch of the Friends of Irish Freedom organisation led by John Devoy and Judge Daniel F. Cohalan. He became president of the American Association for the Recognition of the Irish Republic. He christened his newborn son Eamon De Valera McGarrity.
