    Share Share Post
    There are a lot of people buried on Inch island. There is a graveyard on Inch that grass never grew on. There are headstones over nearly every grave.
    There is a headstone over a man named Michael Kiernan. He was buried in 1918, and there is also a man named James Kilroy. He was buried in 1920. There are a lot of old graves on it.
    There is an old church in the middle of the graveyard. It is not in use now. The church fell.
    St Colmcille lived on it one time.
