    In former years a century or so ago the Catholic church of Dunboyne stood at the Dunboyne end of Fair Green on Mr McCarthy's land presently marked by two sycamore trees on the road leading to the Navan road. The Parochial House was then "Edenmore" presently occupied by Sean Boylan until the new Parochial House was built. There was an old grave yard at Kilbrennan about 100 yards from Mr Reids house presently marked by two tall piers.
