Hello - I am trying to trace an ancestor from Limrick City. His name was Michael Quirke - he joined the 98th regiment of foot in 1824 and never returned to Ireland. According to his army record he was born in C1800 in St Mary's - Limerick City, I have no next of kin details for him. There was a Timothy Quirke who also joined the regiment at the same time also from St Marys so he could be a brother ? Does anyone know anything of this family and any idea's as to how I could progress ?
Thanks,
Jason
