I have sinann my great grandfather Christopher Jordan in it, there were 10 women shot dead on the 29th April 1916 not sure what one is connected to my family , trying to establish as much facts as possible,  ie, what British snipers who where on the roof top of sir patrick dunns hospital on the 29th april shooting, I traced some of the 10 women births but not sure of others, all my family have passed many years ago of that generation so the young woman a relative was never mention , other than a cousin because my great grandfather  Christopher and his son James where shot the same day.
My great aunt Maggie morrissey nee Jordan daughter of Christopher and sister of james , gave an interview in 1991about the rising on rte

Sinann if you want to watch the interview with my great Maggie, she tells the story, just Google Margaret morrissey 1916 , the programme is called war and conflict living through the rising,  watch it then get back to me.
