The Mayoman (1919-1921) was a Nationalist newspaper founded by John J. Collins, Davitts Terrace, Castlebar, who was an auctioneer/estate agent like his grandson Thomas Collins of Castle Street. His uncle was the Archbishop of Tuam, Thomas Gilmartin (1861–1939). Collins served on the local UDC with his brother T.R. (Thomas Richard) and was a noted musician – he regularly broadcast on Radio Éireann. The newspaper existed at the height of the War of Independence but after his printer (Athlone Printing Works) was burned down by the Black & Tans, it ceased publication in 1921.
