My Gran (Edward Ryan's wife) was Mona Ryan. When she died in 2011 just after her 98th birthday her house in Caledon Road was sold.My Grandad Edward died on the 8th of June 1967 aged 66 so thanks to your relation who carried him to hospital the day he was shot he lived for many more years! None of the Ryans live in East Wall now. I have only started looking into family history so I have not got a lot of information on my Grandad. I know he eventually got compensation for being shot and he started a coal business with a horse and cart and bought the house in East Wall near his parents. He had the wound from being shot all his life but as someone else on the thread said he lost the other leg because of a recurring infection from an old injury. I am aware that three of Grandad's brothers may have fought in different army uniforms but I don't have any information yet as to who they were.
