My great, great, great grandfather was from Limerick. He fought in the Crimean War and was part of the Charge of the Light Brigade. And survived

He was court martialled for striking an officer on 01st January. Rumour is he was fond of a drink.

He moved to England and ended up creating four generations of Arsenal fans
