My Maternal Grandfather was John Terence Tormey. B 1918 Moate Westmeath. His father was Peter Tormey who died in the 1930s, Mother was Catherine (maiden name Macdonald ??). She died around 1928. Peter and Catherines son Joseph was shot dead by the Brits in January 1921, and he was apparently not the only one of their boys to die in this manner. They had 13 or 14 children in total, but by the end of WW2 only two remained (my gradfather John T and his brother Owen who migrated to USA)
I would be very grateful for any info on tis particular Peter if you have any.
Regards
Neil
