Seeking Sargeant Major Russell
« on: Friday 02 February 18 19:54 GMT (UK) »
I wonder if anyone can help me, I have Robert WB Russell b1877 in Glasgow, moved with his wife to Dublin. He was in the army & may have been stationed in Dublin, possibly at Collin Barracks, I am told he was a Sargeant Major(?) His wife & family lived in Dublin, their names are Maggie S Russell nee Hamilton & daughter Ellen.
Is there anyway I can find out where in Dublin Robert was? Also where in Dublin Maggie was? I am told that Maggie & Ellen came to Dublin between 1924 - 1930 (which is what I am also trying to confirm).
Thanks
Regards Trish

I'm sorry, I am not seeking their marriage, as I already have that information, I sorry if I haven't  made it clear. I am looking for info on the Barracks in Dublin, if Robert Russell was there during period 1921-1930 (or 1956).And if Maggie & Ellen were living in Dublin? Regards Trish

Robert would need to be in the Irish Army to be in a barracks after 1922.

I didn't read all those threads but from what I did read, it looks like.
Robert was in the Irish Guards a British Army Regiment so he won't have been stationed in Ireland after 1922.
His wife and at least two of his children spent a short time in Ireland in the 1920s.

They could possibly be in the 1926 census but that won't be released until 2027.
