| Description: | Documents relating to IRA internal accounts with many signed by Sean MacBride as a Director of Finance. Includes detailed notes about particular grants and payments, amounts lost due to raids, expenses claimed, various disputed amounts and so on. Files contain full monthly accounts, incomes and expenditures, cash balances.

The Irish Republican Army was an Irish Republican revolutionary paramilitary organisation. It was descended from the Irish Volunteers and recognised by the First Dáil as the legitimate army of the Irish Republic in April 1921 and fought during the Irish War of Independence (1919-1922). Following the Anglo-Irish Treaty (1921) it split into pro-Treaty forces and the anti-Treaty forces and each side fought during the Irish Civil War (1922-1923). The anti-Treaty IRA lost and refused to recognise the Irish Free State. It existed in various forms for over 40 years before splitting in 1969. |
