  1. The Old Graves 21-10-38
    In this parish there are two churchyards to be found. One is situated in Ballinahinch and the other in Killoscully.
    These churchyards are still in use. They are not round in shape. There is still a church in both of them. Both churchyards are level. In Ballinahinch churchyard there are a few palm trees growing. The churchyard contains considerably old tombs dating from 1857 to the present day. The crosses are ornamented with Celtic designs. They are made of stone and iron.
    Some families use distant graveyards though they live in the parish of Killoscully. These families are the "Clifford Johns" and the Maddens of Glenculloo and the Kennedy's of Lackabrack.
