  1. Col. T. Ryan had a most interesting career in the British Army. He joined as a Private and made good right along the line.
    He was in Command of a Batallion in Palestine in the World War.
    He came of humbleworking parents and the old lime place in Newtown where he was born is still standing
    He retired from the Brit Army just about the time of the Truce in this Country. He was given an important post in the National Army to clear up the "Irregulars." When he had his task complete - he took up Farming at a place called Mertin near Macmine Station.
