- In Ballyduff in this parish is an old burial ground long gone out of use. It is called "Cill Branair," (i.e. from the pronunciation of the people).
It is on the land of Michael Berry who never interfered with it in any away.
My grandfather, John Magner, Ballincurrig, Killavullen, who died in 1932 aged 99 years, often told me that he never saw adults being buried there.
However he saw many unbaptised infants being buried there during his early days. The public entrance to this church yard was through Mr John Clancy's land in the townland of Ballincurrig.
