  1. There are four graveyards in this parish. Their names are Clondahorkey, Doe Castle, Doe and Ballymore graveyards. People are buried in each of them yet. There are the ruins of a church at Clondahorkey burying-ground. There are trees growing in Doe graveyard. Babies who are not baptized are buried in the graveyard after night. All the graveyards are fairly level. If people die away from their former home sometimes they are buried in the burying ground of their residence.
