  1. Templederry is an ancient graveyard. It is square in shape and slopes southwards. Four other boys and myself visited it on December the 8th and as well as we could make out the oldest tombstones are those erected to the memory of -
    M. Ryan died in 1706.
    Sinary Taylor .... .. 1746.
    Dan Kennedy .... .. 1781.
    Kelly .... .. 1791.
    Matthew Haugh .... .. 1795
    Denis Shanahan .... .. 1794
    John Guilmartin .... .. 1794
    Margaret Guilmartin .... .. 1794
    Judy Maher .... .. 1797
    Mick Wadwick .... .. 1793
    Bridget Fahy .... .. 1794
    John Bourke .... .. 1795
    Margaret Kenny .... .. 1796
    All these tombstones are square in shape and some of them are rather small. There are no ruins in the graveyard but there is Protestant Church there. There is only one fairly large yew tree growing there and a few small ones.
