Hi Chode,

James Quinn was my dad's Grandfather.

My dad was Francie Quinn who was born and grew up in Crumlin. His dad was Leo Quinn, son of James. I have found paperwork through the Irish Census and also details about James's background. Although he seems to be a man of mystery. Are you based in Dublin?

I would be interested in making contact.

Hi,

Thank you for the advice.

The information I have to date:

James Quinn - killed in the Easter Uprising Dublin, Ireland 1916
According to 1916 records he was 42 at the time of his death but I have not been able to verify his age through church records online. If this age is correct that would mean that he was born in 1884.

He was a painter and left behind a small family. James's son was my Grandfather.
