1860. The Pope’s Irish Brigade and Named Subscribers to Papal Tribute from Bantry, Durrus, Kilcrohane, Caheragh, Drimoleague.
Very interested in the Pope’s Irish Regiment. Is there further information available? Family stories recall a young man who was wounded and later adopted by my Italian ancestors who lived in a Papal community during the Unification. His name was changed and he remained in Italy and became my great grandfather.
