Grace O' Malley was known as the Pirate Queen, and lived in the 16th century. She was the daughter of O'Malley clan chieftain, located in South West of Co Mayo. She was one of the foremost heroine of her time. Her clan controlled the sea routes along the West Coasts of Ireland.
She was married at a young age, to the head of the O'Flaherty clan. When he got killed, she took charge of both clans. She remarries, later on, with Richard Burke, another powerful irish clan chief. But the marriage was short lived.
As England was gaining control over Ireland, Grace was taking pressure, and turned to piracy, blockading Galway port. When the english governor Connaught captured her 2 sons, she sailed to England, to speak to Queen Elizabeth, directly. They met in Greenwich. Grace refuses to bow. They agreed to a truce: if Grace stops attacking english sheeps and switches to spanish ones, her sons would be returned. The Queen kept her side of the bargain.
Grace died at Rockfleet Castle in 1603.
