Loftus Anthony Bryan, of Upton and Bormount in county Wexford, was born in 1867 into a well-known Wexford family, of English extraction that traced its immediate lineage back to Abraham Bryan, a merchant in Dublin in the time of Queen Anne. He served with the Royal Field Artillery during the Great War, and was awarded a Silver War Badge, before retiring to Wexford, where he resided throughout the Civil War. A keen polo player, he sometime served as High Sheriff and a Deputy Lieutenant of County Wexford.

Archibald Douglas Browne (1889–​1977) was a Fellow in Engineering Science at The Queens’ College, Cambridge, and served during the Great War with the Royal Garrison Artillery on the Western Front from 29 July 1915.
