1 Patrick Colgan was a former owner of the Muckross Hotel and one of fifteen Irish Volunteers who marched from Maynooth to the General Post Office in Dublin for the Easter Rising in Patrick Colgan and his comrades fought alongside Ireland s Patriots including Michael Collins, Padraig Pearse and James Connolly during that fateful April week. Major Colgan served in the Irish National Army with distinction and was stationed at Muckross House, Killarney from 1939 during WW II. It was during this time he would frequently visit the Muckross Hotel which was owned by Mrs Margaret Ross. He developed a love for Killarney and along with his wife Annie, they settled in Killarney permanently. On his retirement in 1946, Major Patrick J Colgan decided to start a new venture by purchasing the Muckross Hotel. Affectionately known locally as The Major, he ran this great hotel with his wife Annie making a success of their venture. They continued the traditions of Irish hospitality that led to the Muckross Park Hotel & Spa present today. Major Colgan sadly passed away in 1960 but Annie Colgan continued the hotel venture into the 1970 s with assistance the local Fuller Family. His tradition of a warm Irish welcome, great food and a friendly ear to all visitors continues today. A fitting legacy to one of Ireland s national heroes.
