Hi all! We have been experiencing an issue on site where threads have been missing the latest postings. The platform host Vanilla are working on this issue. A workaround that has been used by some is to navigate back from 1 to 10+ pages to re-sync the thread and this will then show the latest posts. Thanks, Mike.

    Jim Herlihy's books have lots of info.
    If you give a bit more info than just the surname, maybe a county, I will have a quick look for you in my copies of the books I have.

    Joseph Kirwan, DMP number 11307, born 1894, Clonegal, Co. Carlow
    and this might be his brother?
    John Kirwan, DMP number 10899, born 1886, Clonegal, Co. Carlow

    11307 would have joined some time in 1916, 10899 in 1909.
