  1. The Graveyards

    Share Share Post
    Graveyards in this parish. They were three. Their names are, Kilcolman, Barnacarroll, and Ballinasmal.
    Barnacarroll graveyard is situated in the village of Barncarroll, and Kilcolman graveyard is situated in the village of Kilcolman.
    All the graveyards are still in use. There is a church in ruins in Kilcolman and there is also in Ballinasmal.
    In Barnacarroll there are three landlords buried in a little house. There are shelves in it for coffins to be left on, and there an iron door in it and it is locked always.
    There are trees growing round all the churches. The crosses are made of cement and stones. The unbaptised children were buried in forts.
