    Just found out yesterday that the two of my wife’s great great uncles who both died in ww1 fought in British army in Ireland in 1916 against my own great great uncles who fought alongside the rebels in Dublin but not at gpo.
    So my ancestors fought in 3 different battles against my wife’s ancestors.
    Bannockburn, Culloden and Easter Rising in Dublin.

    Having been on a genealogy search the Last couple of years. Have found out that peader bracken is my great gran Julia mcmahon ( Bracken,s) cousin. I know that he was leader of the tullamore volunteers. Then the althlone brigade. Also I know peader and shamus brennan are credited as firing the first shots of the Easter rising. There's not not too much about him online. Would love it if someone could link me to to some online articles about him.
