    headstones over some of the graves. Some of them are made of Marble, some of cement and some of stone.
    People say that if ever graves are touched it is unlucky and if the grass is cut off it is not right.
    Unbaptised children were buried in unconsecrated ground. There is an old church known as Kilmurly for burying children, it is half way to glin and up a few fields from the road.
