49 and/or 61 Ailesbury Rd

Names of men on this mission exist, but it is unclear if there were one or two suspected British agents targeted on Ailesbury Road possibly allocated to two distinct IRA units.

Seán MacCurtain refers to a Lieutenant-Colonel Brown residing at 61 Ailesbury Road

e John O’Shaughnessy refers to a target he names as Major Irvine residing at 49 Ailesbury Road. John Williams who would appear to have been part of the same unit as O’Shaughnessy refers to the target as Major Irwin.
