Thanks for the welcome CSM. I look forward to finding out more about E Coy 2nd Battalion. My research is only in the early stages but I have seen Tom Ennis’s name mentioned several times. I think Michael Smyth lived in the Summerhill area of Dublin during that period.  I will try to find out more. Thanks for telling me about your site. I will keep an eye out for anything with your family mentioned and will let you know if anything crops up.

"there is a Custom House Group on Facebook"

There seem to be many Custom House groups, can you include the relevant link please?

Research into the old Royal Irish Constabulary

I have just come across a reference to a raid for shells on Rudge-Whitworth Stephen's Green at some stage between 1920- 1921 and was wondering of any rootschat members have had heard of it before or if there was any information out there about it. I get the impression from images online that it was a bicycle shop on Stephen's Green North and so I am wondering why it would be raided for shells?!
