Hi
Yes I did see witness statment from James hayes.the only photo I have is one of James. Attached with a tan medal which he was awarded for his participation in war of independence.  If I come across any more photos I'll send them. Have some somewhere just have to root them out.in reference to your gran Margaret marriage  to patrick Doyle kilkenny. I saw marriage certificate from rathwire where Margaret married a Peter Walsh 22nd Feb 1911in ratharney kilucan. Maybe a mistake or maybe she was married twice.regards

JT Hello...  Your grandfather is remembered in my district (Geashill).. the house he lived in was standing up to some years ago. He married in the local church, I have the register copy. He was known and admired. I'm doing a brief history of the Volunteers in the area and would appreciate an image of him and permission to give his biography from you if that is at all possible. I have his statement to the MA of Ireland, most useful to me I must say. Thanks.

Anything more on Jim Hayes would be appreciated, especially an image (for a book on the Volunteers)

Jthayes hasn't been online since 2016 so perhaps he isn't getting email notifications from this thread or his email is no longer active, now that you have 3 posts it would be worth sending him a personal message which if his email is working might get his attention, just click on his user name to go to his profile and use the personal message function, Send PM.
Good Luck

Hi,

Just recently saw your request for information on the Hayes family. I am a grandson of John Hayes, the oldest member of that family. I would have some information if you are still interested
