The Royal Irish Constabulary

The Royal Irish Constabulary For more information go to irishconstabulary.com A reference site for all aspects of policing in Ireland pre-1922 - see www.irishconstabulary.com.

Genealogical information, research and history of the old Irish police forces: the Constabulary of Ireland, Royal Irish Constabulary and Dublin Metropolitan Police. This forum contains a wealth of information on the history of policing, the uniforms, badges and equipment of the Irish Police, and individual histories. Although majoring on the history of the RIC it also covers the Irish Revenue Poli

ce, Dublin Metropolitan Police, Auxiliary Division RIC and many more. A major development has been the compiling of all RIC barrack returns from the 1911 Census, enabling families of RIC men to locate their ancestors. Contributions from families of old RIC are especially welcome.

The Galway (East Riding) RIC
An alphabetic roll of 594 men of this county who served between 1919 and 1922 is now available online; with key statistics relating to marriage, religion, nationality, resignations, deaths and injuries received on or off-duty. This brings the totals now analysed to nearly 15,500.

Only Galway (West Riding) remains outstanding to complete the analysis of Connaught; Munster and Leinster having been completed.

I have already completed the analysis of Cavan, Donegal and Monaghan, the remaining Ulster RIC county forces will be analysed through this coming year.

The RIC Rolls, by county, and including key statistics, can be viewed here:
