John Crowley (Irish politician)

John Crowley (died 1934) was an Irish Sinn Féin politician and medical practitioner.

He was elected as a Sinn Féin MP for the Mayo North constituency in the 1918 general election. In January 1919, Sinn Féin MPs refused to recognise the Parliament of the United Kingdom and instead assembled at the Mansion House in Dublin as a revolutionary parliament called Dáil Éireann. [cite web
