Members of the Second Dáil - Daniel McCarthy
Daniel McCarthy (died 1957) was an Irish politician. McCarthy was first elected to Dáil Éireann as a Sinn Féin Teachta Dála at the 1921 elections for the Dublin South constituency. He subsequently went on to support the Anglo-Irish Treaty, becoming a member of Cumann na nGaedhael when the party was founded. McCarthy joined the government of W. T. Cosgrave as Parliamentary Secretary to the President in 1922. He served in that post until 1924. He did not contest the June 1927 general election and subsequently retired from politics.
