  Photographs 3.  .

At Seamus Ludlow's grave: In this photograph, taken at Ravensdale's Catholic cemetery, north of Dundalk, in County Louth,  Kevin Ludlow, (left), the only living brother of Seamus,  stands with his nephew Jimmy Sharkey at the grave of Seamus Ludlow. Together, they have led the Ludlow family's search for truth and justice for many years. See also photograph on page 4.

Seamus Ludlow as Santa: In this newspaper photograph, Seamus Ludlow, dressed as Santa Claus, poses with his sister-in-law Kitty Ludlow (now deceased) and two of her sons Peadar and Brendan. 

Seamus, who was ordinarily a quiet man, had a great love for children in his large family circle, and  he often played the role of Santa Claus around Dundalk at Christmas time. One newspaper at the time of his murder headlined its story with "Who killed Santa Claus?"
