An archive of personal papers belong to Irish nationalist politician Eamonn Donnelly, one of the founders of political party Fianna Fáil in the Republic of Ireland in 1926, has been donated to Newry and Mourne Museum. Donnelly was born in County Armagh in 1877 and secured electoral victories on both sides of the Irish border.
