FRENCH CONNECTION?

The small Irish village of Foxford has been decorated in the white and blue colors of Argentina and soccer fans there are hoping Gabriel Batistuta and his teammates will visit after winning the World Cup.
Why Argentina?
It seems that 221 years ago, a chap named William Brown was born in Foxford and that he later became an admiral in the Argentine navy.
Which makes it as good an excuse as any.
