Hi folks I am looking for info on my gr granmothers brother Michael O ODonnell, i believe that he was involved with the IRA in dublin in 1916. He was born in belfast in 1897/8. He was in dublin at around this time. He was in prison on two occassions one in 1914 for being in possesion of a bicycle he give his address as High street dublin and ended up in mountjoy. He again was in mountjoy in 1920 for the offence of stealing a bicycle.  Any info reguarding this matter would be of great help.

                                                            many thanks jim
