  1. There are two graveyards in our parish one in Carrinck and one in Ballynarry. Both are in use about a hundred years. The shape of the graveyard is Rect Angular. The first that was buried in Ballynarry graveyard was Pat Smyth's Grandfather of Aughakilmore. It was full of big trees and Father Early cut them down. Carrick graveyard is a bigger one than Ballynarry and it is not attached to the church. It was re built about ten years ago. It is only all catholices that are buried in Ballynarry graveyard.
