I'm not so sure this is the same Paddy Doyle, Annie.
I have some information on a different fella, same name.
I'll have to look into this a bit deeper.

I would be interested in any information you have on Patrick (Black Paddy) Doyle. Family legend says he was a major.
Son of Philip.
Interred in the Curragh about 1938 or 39.
While in jail studied language and eventually became a professor of language

Michael Smith was in E company 2nd Battalion. Think he joined in 1915.

In March 1922 he was elected Captain.

Edit: Sorry I forgot to give his address and occupation
In 1916 he was living on Bayview Ave. He later lived on Summer hill.
He was a coach painter.

Here's some names of E company that also were members of Laurence O'Tool Gaelic Games Club.
There is a little paragraph about each name.  Fairly basic stuff about each man.
If anyone spots a relative and can't get their hands on the book, they can send a private message to me and I'll let you know what it says.
The booklet is called "Saint Laurence O'Toole G.A.C. Centenary History" by Jimmy Wren"

I've only listed E Company here but there are a few from other companies that were members of the club.

I just had a quick read of this, Noel Lemass lived in Capel St, He was shot after the Civil War.It was rumoured that it was Free State officers in plain clothes that did it.The reason he was shot was he was taking pot shots at army trucks from his parents home & managed to kill 2 officers.He went on the run to the Isle of Man if I remember right & returned a few months after the Civil War ended.His body was found in the Dublin Mountains I think.

I remember going up the Dublin Mountains as a child to "Lemass's Grave" - I think up on the "Featherbed".
 - don't know if he's actually buried there, or was it a monument.
