Searching for RIC records
« on: Thursday 19 March 09 17:44 UTC (UK) »

Hi,

 I couldn't find a post on this so , I was wondering if anyone knew where to search for RIC records .

I am searching for a Richard McGrath b. 18 Jan 1890 in Ballyragget,Co Kilkenny , who family rumors say that he was in the RIC .

Also , another question would be on his brother Patrick McGrath who was a Lance Serjeant in WWI , 1st Battalion Royal Irish Regiment died in Corbie , France.

Was wondering if Co. Kilkenny has any monuments to the men who died in the Great War.

Any help much appreciated,
Megan

Hello Megan,

I had a look at the RIC Index but couldn't find a Richard McGrath but you may want to try Garda Museum and Archives.
 
Details below from  An Garda website

Service Record details can be obtained from the Garda Museum and Archives Section, telephone +353 1 666 9998 or by e-mail to museum[--at--]garda.ie. Many service records for the Royal Irish Constabulary and the Dublin Metropolitan Police are also available.
