Geraldine, if you go into the 'Irish in Uniform' web site, you will find some information on the Irish Regiments. Its possible that your grandfather was a member of the Leinster Regiment. The main depot of the Leinster Regiment was Crinkle Barracks Birr. The Leinster Regiment also spent time in Tipperary Town. He also might have in the Connaught Rangers. They also spent some time in Tiperary Town.
