    1. James O'Donoghue RIC
    2. Hi Jack, I have met Peter Hart, I have another relation who was involved in the Kilmichael ambush. James daughter Marie who later became principle of Laurel Hill in Limerick, she became a Nun, interviewed the people and family's who were involved in the killing, they are known as Maria's Diaries, Peter Hart refers to them in his book, my cousin Ethinne now has the diaries, she is married to Professor Peter Barry of Trinity College Dublin. On the night my granduncle was murdered there was a lot of retribution that night, 3 IRA members were shot dead by the RIC, this was the old IRA not to be confused with the modern edition. I suppose I have to ask the question why on one side of my family family members were joining the RIC and on the other side they were involved in subversive activities. I suppose that was Irish politics at the time.
