  1. Graveyards

    Share Share Post
    In Killascobe there is a monastery and graves surrounding it. All graves are level and some people are buried in tombs. The head of the dead person is always towards the west and the head of a priest is always towards the east. Some people are buried outside their parishes because it was outside the parish that the fathers and grandfathers were buried.
    There is no unused grave in Menlough Parish.
