Just a quick note. I contacted Jim HERLIHY in Cork and had a reply the same day. He has ascertained information regarding my Great Grand father and I have sent the necessary cash for a copy of that information. A good result thanks to you.

FHL films
« Reply #10 on: Saturday 25 September 10 18:32 BST (UK) »
Has anybody ever used the FHL films for the RIC?  Any tips?

Within the next month or so when I can get access to the films I plan to search for my great-granduncle, Daniel Collins, b. Sep-1865 and not sure his exact years of service.   I am in touch with his grandson, but nobody offhand knows Daniel's service number.

We think Daniel is D C in the RIC station in Ballinskelligs DED (Co Kerry) in the 1901 census.  That's the only indication we have of his service period we have "on paper."  In 1911 it looks like he is a "pensioner."

PLEASE POST YOUR QUESTIONS TO THE BOARD, NOT THROUGH PM, so that everybody can take a shot at answering your question and benefit from the information.  I cannot respond to requests through private emails.

RIC records are available in Dublin City Library, Pearse St. I believe these are copies of the films made by LDS  - see : Royal Irish Constabulary Records 1816 - 1922
