Hi my mam lived at 15 The Coombe until 1952. Her mother moved in that house in 1920.  My Grandmother death cert has her address as 15 Coombe Street.

hi.  I suppose it is for family tree purposes. but he is the only member of my family that I know nothing about.  if indeed it says ex soldier.. then his career was brief. he was not a soldier in 1920, it says labourer on his wedding cert. and he was an ex by 1924 0n his daughters birth cert.
his father Patrick Sheridan was an electrician.

well as far as im aware, he was born in Dublin. this may not be the case. he was married in Dublin in 1920. but I shall look into british army archives also.

No, I have looked.  I have looked on that census and every site I can find. seems strange that he`s a soldier...with no record whatsoever.

Thanks anyway.

Thanks for the reply. I am very sorry to say that I have had a look at the birth certificate, and found a different date to what I was told.  She was born 30 September 1924.

Surely the civil war had ended by then ?    So what could E4 soldier mean ?

I will attempt to add the picture of the certificate as an attachment.

Thanks again.

Dublin / Battle for Dublin 1922

Can somebody help please. while looking for info on my grandfather James Sheridan, I came across his daughters birth certificate of 1922 the named him as  E4 Soldier.  I have looked in every irish military site there is, and he can not be found.
He was a labourer in 1920, and there was no European war at the time, so he joined up for a reason.
The british army has no prefix like E4 in their ranks. But the americans do. it means specialist corporal.
Would this suggest he was an  `Irregular` Anti treaty Republican ?
I can not find anything on him at all.
Can somebody suggest the best way of finding out......please.
I believe he was born in 1900, and lived in Coombe St Dublin South.
