Fenian Joe Pooles siblings
« on: Tuesday 25 August 15 21:52 BST (UK) »
Im doing some family research on the Fenian Joseph Poole who was Hung in what is now Griffith College in December 1883.
I have a vast amount of info on his extended family etc ..but I dont have much on his siblings which I believe there may have been apprx 8.
Would any of the knowledgeable  people looking in possibly be able to name them for me ?
Im planning a visit to Kilmainham Gaol next week with a relative of Joseph's and would like to have a few more pieces of the Puzzle for them as they basically knew nothing of the Lad.

re the above article i cant see how Joseph born circa 1856 could be a brother to the others.

Frederick Poole and Maria Madden these look more likely to have taken part in 1916

There are a few children to that couple ( his parents) but a lot of different spellings of Fanning

According to An Phoblacht his brothers were
Christy  Vincent and Patrick and nephew John (all 1916 active)

There is a family with a Christy, Vincent and Patrick
Parents Frederick and Mary J Madden but no Joseph.

Looks like a bit of licence has been taken with the Poole story.
