    We have many old Graveyards in Leitrim. The oldest I know are in Drumsna and Annaduff.
    Drumsna is closed for many years. It was the burial place of the Parkes of Kilmore a village 3 miles form here. One of those Parkes was a great employer. He discovered the Victoria Falls of Africa. The O'Rorkes of Breffny are buried in Annaduff and their coat-of-arms is on their tombstone.
