Hi Michael Many thanks for adding this story.   This young Maggie Curran was my Granddad cousin, her father William like most of my Curran's from that genetation was a Tailor the family had been living on Burrin Street before they moved to Granby Row in 1911.   Maggie eldest brother also called William served during WW1, in fact he was a underage soldier at 16 he was discovered and sent back to Carlow, he ran away again and changed his name, sent to France where he was wounded, after the War he joined the RIC under his original name. Hence the RIC and Great War Commrades sending a wreath.     Your other Story of Owen Rice also affect this brance of Curran, as Maggies Sister Julia married Jim Rice who was related to Owen, Julia and her brother William became involved in a feud because of his British Army / RIC involement, this grew to rest of the Curran's and Rice family were all against William which lead him leaving Carlow and Ireland, as a side note his son becames a Major General in the British Army.   all the best Terry     --- El vie, 5/3/10, michael purcell <carlowmike@gmail.com> escribió: De: michael purcell <carlowmike@gmail.com> Asunto: [IRL-CARLOW] Announcments April 1921.
