Tipperary area. He was later captured by Free State troops in Limerick and interned in Mountjoy jail in Dublin. Post-war life After the war Hogan returned to farming in Tipperary. Hogan tried farming in County Dublin, but this venture did not succeed. He also worked for the Board of Works and as an usher in the Dáil. He married Christina Butler, a nurse and Cumann na mBan member, on 24 February 1925 at Our Lady of Refuge church in Rathmines Dublin. His brother Matthew was best man and the bride's sister, Alice, was bridesmaid. The couple had three sons; Hugh, Thomas and Seán, but later separated. The revolutionary years had taken a toll on his mental and physical health and in later years he was in poor circumstances, living on his own in North Great George's Street, Dublin. Hogan stayed with Séumas Robinson and his family in their house on Highfield Road for 6 months. He died aged sixty-seven on Christmas Eve, 1968. He was buried with full military honours in the family grave at St. Michael's Cemetery, Tipperary town. In popular culture Hogan is mentioned in the Irish folk ballad "The Galtee Mountain Boy", along with Seán Moylan, Dinny Lacey and Dan Breen. The song, written by Patsy Halloran, recalls some of the travels of a "Flying column" from Tipperary as they fought during the Irish War of Independence, and later against the pro-Treaty side during the Irish Civil War. A song about Hogan's rescue at Knocklong was recorded by Irish folk singer Johnny Donegan and Limerick band Clover. A biography of Hogan's life titled Seán Hogan His Life: A Troubled Journey written by Tipperary historian John Connors was published in 2019. In 2022, Tom Hennessy published Seán Hogan's Flying Column , an examination of the first march under arms of the 3rd Tipperary Brigade and the local families who aided them.
