This page features links to many sites that have given coverage to the Ludlow family's struggle for truth and justice. Included here are journalist Ed Moloney's Sunday Tribune reports which are on the website of the Pat Finucane Centre (PFC) in Derry. Other PFC links in this list refer to other cases where there  are documented instances of collusion between the British forces and Loyalists in the murder of people along the border.

 There are links to sites relating to the murderous Dundalk and  Silverbridge attacks of December 1975, and the Dublin and Monaghan bombings of 1974. 

There is a link to a recording of an RTE radio interview with Jimmy Sharkey that was broadcast on the morning of the Ludlow family's press conference for the publication of the independent  BIRW Report on 18 February 1999.. 

Many supporters have left messages of support on the Ludlow family's original BeSeen.com Guestbook and these can still be viewed on this website. Visitors can now post messages to our new Bravenet.com guestmap Guest Book.

The Ludlow family appreciates the support that has come from a wide range of groups in Ireland and the USA, who share the family's outrage at the cover-up and smear campaign that has followed the sectarian murder of an innocent man.

Visitors are directed to our Press Coverage page where many media reports of Seamus Ludlow's murder and the Ludlow family campaign have been collected.

For convenience the Links list is divided into bookmarked categories.
