Title: 1798 yeomen infantry, Rathcoole, Co. Dublin
Post by: kclinch on Friday 17 August 18 03:33 BST (UK)
In the last week of May, 1798, John Clinch, a member of the Rathcoole (County Dublin) Yeoman infantry was convicted of treason and hanged June, 1st or 2nd. I would like to know if he was a Protestant or Catholic. Does there exist a list of yeomen membership with such information?

If you could find where in Dublin the family moved to you may find their religion
