Guest Alison Holmes Posted 17 August , 2005 Share Posted 17 August , 2005 Hi Stephen, Have just resumed the research into my Grandfathers life after a bit of a break and found your post. Would appreciate it if you could help in any way with the following: Walter Lang - demobbed from RFA on 19/7/21 after being one of the first to go to France on 19/8/14. From information received from family it appears he then joined the RIC in 1921 until it changed to the RUC in 1922. We think he then left the RUC in 1940 and joined up again for WW2 for a short while. Thanks very much. Alison Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest Biker Steffy Posted 17 August , 2005 Share Posted 17 August , 2005 Hello Iwas really interested in this post. My grandfather I am sure his first name was Patrick (I only called him grandad !!!) Costigan.. He was born in Carlow I believe. I know he was at Ypers during the war, it "brutalised" him and left him with a "coldness". After what he had endured he had little sympathy for minor problems. He joined the Garda sometime after his return and eventually held quite high office in Limerick before he retired.

Redradial Posted 31 July , 2006 Share Posted 31 July , 2006 Hi, if you still have access to the RIC docs could you please look up Gerald Declan Burke, dob 1900 he was with the RIC between 1920 and 1922 Many thanks, Red Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Martyn L Posted 10 August , 2006 Share Posted 10 August , 2006 Stephen I did try to email you before I came accross this thread, so apologies if you receive this request twice. Please can you look up a RIC 52469, George Lougheed for me? I am interested in his enlistment date, origin, personal details etc. Kind regards Martyn Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
bigronhartley Posted 10 August , 2006 Share Posted 10 August , 2006 Hello Stephen, If you still have access to the RIC records, I would very much appreciate if you could have a look to see if you can find anything on Joseph Henry BIGLEY. I believe he rose to the rank of Sergeant and would have served about 1870-1895. Many thanks. Regards, Ron Hartley Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Guest patt Posted 18 September , 2006 Share Posted 18 September , 2006 I am looking for Thomas Kellagher who in 1914 joined the Alberta Police Force. Prior to that he was in the RIC for 5 years. He may well have collected the returns for the 1911 census in Co Down, possibly Derryboye area Any information would be appreciated Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Malcolm Linham Posted 19 September , 2006 Share Posted 19 September , 2006 Stephen, Do your records include the auxuliaries (Black and Tans), oral family history suggests that my grandfather Frederick Thomas Blake Pte 3/8019 Dorset reg served as one.

AndyMacdonald Posted 20 September , 2006 Share Posted 20 September , 2006 I have access to the service records of all the 85,000 men who served in this force from 1836 till its disbandenment in 1922. Of particular note to the forum is the 752 men who served with the colors during the Great War of which 167 were KIA. I will be more than happy to do look ups for any of the Pals. Stephen Hi, My GGG Grandfather Bernard Greene (or Green) was in RIC before emigrating to NZ, or Australia and NZ. That would have been circa 1860s and he became the 5th policeman in NZ. Records we have suggest he came from County Fermanagh, but that could be wrong. Judging from what we know of him, his file could contain interesting references so don't be shy to fire every thing through! email: amacdonald@msm.co.uk Andy M Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Hett65 Posted 20 September , 2006 Share Posted 20 September , 2006 Stephen Could you please check your records for Thomas Henry Nugent born 1889 at Kesh, Co Fermanagh. He served 3 years with the RIC before going to England where he joined Newcastle upon Tyne City Police on 15.4.1913 as PC931. He had also served with the Irish Guards as Private 3524 and was recalled to the colours in August 1914, and was reported missing on 1.11.1914, which was later given as his date of death for official purposes. He had two brothers in the RIC, Joseph Nugent stationed Collooney and Patrick Nugent stationed Lisburn. I also have two or three other constables who served in the RIC then came to Newcastle, would you like the details to add to your files.

Chris_Baker Posted 22 September , 2006 Share Posted 22 September , 2006 Back to my enquiry from 2003! The man I am after was Major General William Richard English-Murphy D.S.O., M.C., M.A. Chief Commissioner of Dublin (?) Police 1923-25. I know he dropped the name English at some point. Reason? He commanded the 1st South Staffords in Italy in 1918. Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
Teresa in Wirral Posted 22 September , 2006 Share Posted 22 September , 2006 Hi Stephen, I'm told (!!) that my great uncle Albert Gillespie was in the RIC. Is it possible for you to check for me in your resources for me. Thank you Teresa Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...

Guest jacey Posted 29 September , 2006 Share Posted 29 September , 2006 Hi Stephen, Trying to find information on my grandfather James Carter who we think was RIC in Dublin around 1920.

Guest ajbm Posted 17 November , 2006 Share Posted 17 November , 2006 Hi Stephen, If you are still offering look-ups on the RIC records, can you do a search for: Joseph Abercrombie b1861 who served in Hacketstown Co Carlow as a sergeant. I'm not sure where he was born, but he married Elizabeth Cullen from Co Laois in 1890 and died in 1943. Any information would be appreciated Thanks Alex Link to comment Share on other sites More sharing options...
