  1. Through out the country there are many very old Graveyeards.
    The number of the Graveyards in the
    district is nine, one each in Castledermot. Moone Kilkea, Ballyhade, Grange, Levitstown, Knockpatrick Dunmanogue and the one in Knocknacrie is a private one. Moone and Levitstown and Grange (is) are the most up-to-date. Knockpatrick is a very good graveyard because St Patrick was supposed to have left his footprint on a flat stone.
    {The marks of his feet can be seen on the stone}
