MANY THANKS  Capel Street Man for your prompt reply, I do have some information and photos , but not a huge amount around  that period, he was born 1885 and passed away in 1970. As you know he was working for Collins in GHQ in parkgate during the day and was contributing to chaos at night  along with Martin Hoare,  helping to earn Camden Street ,Thomas street and the surronding areas the name of the Dardenell's to the crown forces.He was also in the Dublin Metropolitan Police and then later as a detective in An Garda Siochana, based in Dublin  Castle. He's mentioned briefly in David Nelligans book The Spy in the Castle. But apart from a few other snipets thats all i have of that period.
