Hi Gary
Sorry this took so long.
My father said that Joe was an electrician and he passed away around 1940.
I will post some documents and medals my father just gave me that were my grandfathers from the uprising. Just have to upload them.

My Grandfather David Golden and My Great Uncle  Joe Leonard (Lily Leonard , Joes sister married my Grandfather)  were part of the uprising and worked with Michael Collins. Just wanting to know more about Joe Leonard. I know he was one of the 12 Apostles. Someone named simokav posted on this site and said he was related to Joe. If anyone has info let me know.
Thanks
