  1. About a mile from my home there are two old graveyards. There is one for the protestant Bishops. Bishop Bedell planted a tree in the graveyard. It is there still. He is buried in the other graveyard. This graveyard is still in use. It is a square graveyard.

  2. Kilmore old graveyard slopes in a southerly direction. There are many trees in it some of the trees are up to a hundred years old. There is an old tomb in it. Bishop Bedell is buried in it. There is one cross in it. It is made of wood.
