During the siege at Glenrowan, Ned Kelly was shot 28 times in his legs, which were the only unprotected part of his body (Kelly was famous for his home-made body armour).
Ned Kelly was hung in Old Melbourne Gaol on 11 November 1880 after being sentenced to death by Irish Judge Redmond Barry on on 29 October 1880, who found him guilty of multiple counts of murder. It is said that he uttered "Such is life" moments before he was hung, but there is actually no real evidence to substantiate this. He was either 25 or 26 years old (his actual date of birth is uncertain).
As was common with executed criminals in those days, a "death mask" was made of Kelly's head, in order for phrenological analysis. This involved the study of bumps on his heads in order to hopefully gain an insight into the mind of criminals. After he was hanged, Kelly was then decapitated, dissected and buried in a non-consecrated yard at the Melbourne Gaol.
In November 2011, his family was finally granted permission to bury his remains near his mother and some of his brothers and sisters in the Greta church yard, south of Glenrowan.

Was Dan Kelly Hung as well as Ned Kelly?
Dan Kelly, the younger brother of notorious outlaw Ned Kelly, was not hanged. Instead, he was killed during a confrontation with police at the Siege of Glenrowan in June 1880, just days before Ned's capture. Ned Kelly was eventually tried and hanged in November 1880. Thus, only Ned faced the gallows, while Dan met his end in a violent clash.
When was ned kelly's birthday?
June 3, 1855. Kelly was hanged - as the words of an Australian song go - from a rafter in the Russell Street jail (Melbourne) on November 11, 1880, a date ironically coinciding with Armistice day, or Remembrance Day, in 1918, which celebrates the end of World War 1. We hand out poppies to commemorate Armistice Day; not sure what we should hand out to commemorate the charismatic Irishman's hanging. Bullets, or bits of rope, perhaps.
Why was Ned Kelly hanged in Old Melbourne?
Ned Kelly was hanged in Old Melbourne on November 11, 1880, primarily for his role as the leader of a gang that engaged in a series of violent confrontations with the police in Australia. He was convicted of the murder of a police officer during a bank robbery and his subsequent actions, including the infamous siege at Glenrowan, solidified his status as an outlaw. Despite his controversial legacy, Kelly became a folk hero for many, symbolizing resistance against colonial authority. His execution marked the end of an era in the Australian bushranger history.
