This is just a guess, but about 35,000 from Southern Ireland?
Much more than that served.. Over 50,000 soldiers from Ireland died fighting for UK in WW1
Where are you going with 35,000 ,more than 250,000 fought with the British Army and approx 50,000 died in their service.Dont forget Ireland was unified then and was still in union with Britain

Many Irish joined the British Army, because they were promised freedom for Ireland, like the Jews were promised Israel. In both cases, the British lied.
It seems like the enemies of the Provisional Irish Republican Army would be the British. That's what the research that I did on this topic.
Through much of its history, Ireland has been involved in conflicts with the British in order to get their independence. Ireland has also had invasions from the vikings. Ireland is a neutral country, so it is not involved in any conflicts now and was not involved in World War II. It was not directly involved in World War I, but it was under British rule at that time, and the British were involved. In both World Wars many Irish men joined the British Army and fought in the wars, many losing their lives. As a neutral nation Ireland is not in any military alliances, such as NATO, and it has a strong record in peacekeeping activities. There is an Irish army, but it is not very large. Some of its personnel go on peacekeeping duties to other parts of the world.
To no longer be under the British, to declare Ireland as a nation of only Irish leaders
