  1. The Old Graveyards

    Share Share Post
    In the district of Kilbarron Borrisokane there are many old graveyards but one special one which is known as the oldest is called Finnoe graveyard. It is not round in shape but it is level. There are many trees growing it. There is a church on this graveyard which is still used. The most of the unbaptised children were buried in old forts around the district. The are many old graveyards on the parish with old tombs, monuments and crosses. There is no ornamented cross on it.
    I Ena Ryan got the above from my father M. Ryan, Gregulawn, Borrisokane Co. Tipperary.
