    There are five graveyards in my parish (Ashford) Killoughter graveyard in Killoughter,Killiskey in Killiskey, Trinity in Ballyhenry, Killfey (Kilfea) in Glanmore and Glenealy in Glenealy.
    Killoughter graveyard is not level. It is sloping towards the West.There are trees growing in it. There are some very old tomb stones in it. One is dated 1738 and the other 1757. There are also the ruins of of a Church in it. People are buried within the ruins.
