- There is an old graveyard at Kilatal about 3 miles from Ballingarry on the south-east side. It has no boundary fence.
There are mounds of earth to show where the graves are and a few rough headstones. One of which is lying flat has a hole in it and it is said that a Priest lies buried under it.
Only unbaptized children are buried there now and the graveyard is called Killeens.There is an old graveyard at Ballynoe Ballingarry. Mounds of stones mark the graves. A man named Anderson who lived at the Polly Bross long ago told my grandfather that he remembers people to be buried there.
