My Grandad was called Harold Croke, who I believe was born in Plymouth but lived in Dublin while growing up. His dad was a Major in the Army. My Grandad married Nelle Dunne who was from Kildare. They had 13 children, the whole family moved to Luton in the 50's. Only 1 has returned back to Ireland to live. I do know that my great, great uncle was Archbishop Croke of Cashel in Tipperary. I hope all this information helps. kind regards
