Help needed locating an old pathe film that used to be shown in the old Curragh cinema. It was a short piece made on The Hartley's/Cronin family/Coy family. My great granfather William Hartley served and lived there for many years with his family all of whom served.My grandfather was Edward Hartley and his brothers Liam(Bill)Hartley,Tony Hartley and Michael Hartley. Liam(Bill)Hartley also served in the congo and was awarded a medal so some of you out there who also served in the congo might remember something. Also in photos i have posted are my grandfathers brothers in law John Collopy,Gene Nolan and Kerry Burns. My grandfathers sister remembers the piece been shown but no one can seem to locate it. If anyone can help or knows someone who can help find it i would be very grateful,regards Eamonn

Had the pleasure of meeting up with Kerry burns wife and daughter recently at a funeral in the Curragh and was able and glad to show them photos of her father that were on display in the NCOS Mess. and after a long chat about the past i was able to pass on copies of the photos to them that i had.
nice to see them to see them nice
