Dublin / Re: Henry BURKE, b1895, British Army, later IRA
« on: Thursday 21 September 23 08:02 BST (UK) »
Hi, I have been following this feed with interest. My grandfathers older brother Christopher Henry Burke, born approx 1994-1996 to Mary Burke and Henry Burke. He joined the British army as Henry/Harry Burke and was said to have joined the IRA and he was not spoken of again by the family. He was a tailor like his father and brothers. I have photos of him before he left home.
It was thought he died and was never seen or heard from again. My grandfather was a Russian Jew who married a catholic woman in Cork Ireland. He would have Russian Jewish connections in England and Ireland. Family members have tried to access his war records without success. There are some simulators to this feed.
