    iron. There are two disused graveyards in the parish. Cave, ene and the old grave-yard in Mulhuddart. The old people around this locality say they remember burials to have taken place there. These graveyards were called cemetries. It is a custom that all the family should be buried together in the same graveyard, even if the grave-yard is not in the parish.
