The Royal Irish Constabulary Forum
This community exists to help relatives or interested persons in research relating to old Irish police forces which existed prior to 1922. Its primary theme revolves around the Royal Irish Constabulary, in which many thousands of Irishmen served.
We would welcome photographs, family reminiscences and discussions. If your ancestor received any medals during his police service, please let us know.
