[edit] History
Gerry was the shopkeeper in Kilmoneen, the Irish village where the Flaherty family lived.
Gerry was a married man, but was secretly having an affair with Mary Flaherty. He told Mary he was leaving his wife to be with her, but Mary ended their relationship publicly, and the local bartender, Patrick, heard their argument and told Mary's uncle, Eamonn. Eamonn couldn't wait to tell his violent, alcoholic father Sean, which lead to Mary's departure from the village, scared of what Sean would do to her.
