Did you march to mark the fiftieth anniversary of the Irish Easter Uprising? If so, the Celtic League would like to hear from you.

A new film clip has been found showing the parade in 1966, and Mec Vannin members can be seen alongside nationalists from other countries.

Celtic League director of information Bernard Moffatt says that period of Manx nationalist history isn’t well-documented and he’s hoping to get a copy of the film for the Manx Museum.

But he’d also like your help trying to identify the people on the march:
