Betsy Gray was an Ulster Scots Presbyterian peasant girl from outside Lisburn in Co. Antrim in what is today Northern Ireland who was killed as part of the 1798 Rebellion of the United Irishmen . She is the subject of many folk ballads and poems written since her time down to the present day. She fought in the Battle of Ballynahinch against the Yeomanry , and was killed in retreat along with her brother and lover, having her right hand cut off before being decapitated. She is a folk hero to all Republicans in Ulster , with both Ulster loyalism loyalists and Irish republicanism republicans claiming her as their own, as typified by the centenary celebrations where the locals broke a monument to her sooner than let Irish nationalism Nationalists have a ceremony in her honour. Betsy Gray Cup Today the Betsy Gray Cup is awarded by the Gaelic Athletic Association GAA in her memory in Ulster.
