Who was W. H. Grattan Flood?

William Henry Grattan Flood, musicologist and historian, was born in Lismore in 1857. As a writer and ecclesiastical composer, his personal contributions to Irish musical form produced enduring works. As an historian his output was prolific on topics of local and national historical or biographical interest.

Flood was given the title Chevalier by Pope Benedict XV in 1917, and thereafter was called Chevalier Flood by his close friends and admirers. He is not to be confused with the unrelated Irish statesmen Henry Flood or Henry Grattan.
