Sorry - I am not competent to reply on that one

If nobody replies in the next hour or so PM "oaks and acorns" or"mssmokestoomuch" on this forum, as they know more about actually getting the details than I do

My feeling to date on "Upper Mount Street" IRA men is that the following were involved (remember there was a shooting at Lower Mount Street as well, which is the quote above)

• Vinny Byrne in charge, entered Bennett's room
• Herbie Conroy entered Bennett's room
• Frank Saurin entered Bennett's room
• Sean Doyle entered Bennett's room
• ? entered Ames room
• ? entered Ames room
• Tom Ennis. Ames room
• Tom Duffy Ames room
• Michael Lawless by the front door

BTW I have a professional photograph of F Company (with the names underneath) taken I think in the 40's or 50's and it shows Frank Saurin as a member of F Company, Batt II.

I am nearly certain that it is under the FoI act the information is provided
I applied by letter last year to Renmore for information on two people
They have the written records for every individual who applied for a War of Independence Pesions regardles of whether they were successful or not!
I appiled last October and have been told it could be September before I get the files
So great patience needed!!!!!

I believe however it is worth it

[Magell14]

Thanks for that.  I will apply straight away.

Why not indulge us all and put it up here with the names

[Magell14]

Ok The picture is too big to fit on my scanner so I have done the picture and the names underneath separately.  It is a bit blurry but you should be able to make out the names.  Hope you find it interesting.

I've sent you a PM.
