Great War Bronze Memorial plaque, ' Martin Byrne'. Private Martin Byrne, Son of Mrs Sarah Byrne, of Drogheda Row, Monasterevan, Kildare and of the 7th Battalion Leinster Regiment, 16th Irish Division, 47th Brigade, was killed in action on the 31st August 1916 at the battle of the Somme, he was just 19 years of age, he has no known grave and is remembered with honour at the Thiepval Memorial to the missing. (From a hand-written poem found with medal group) So Long As Love Abides They laid him where he fell in Battle, far away from me, Where iI cannot plant his grave with flowers of memory That last sweet solace is denied,an exile there he lies, Underneath the alien stars and unfamiliar skies Yet the part of him I loved, the spirit and the mind Is clothed in immortality and cannot be confined, To the faithful death is life and no dark gulf devides, He will dwell within my heart so as love abides.
