The offical details of the release are at

Release 20 Names and addresses
plus there is a brief synopsis of some interesting bits at :
Good to see some names with addresses in Harold's Cross and one person with a Knocklong address. Will have to delve into them soon.
Interesting to see a bit re John Pidgeon. His father Sylvester died a few months after being wounded at the Bachelors Walk massacre. His sister Eileen died just before his father (she wasn't injured at Bachelors Walk).
There is mention of a Hugh Mehlhorns father (Dresden born Viktor Hugo Mehlhorn aka Peter, 1869-1954) being interned in Odlcastle. This was used as an internment camp for people living in Ireland who were born in Germany, Austria etc and deemed "Enemy Aliens".
A couple of Mehlhorn references in Poor Law Guardian minutes :
