  1. There are three graveyards in the Parish of Philipstown Tallanstown and Charlestown.
    The townland they are situated in is Philipstown Churchtown and Louthhall and it is not level but it slopes East.
    There are palm trees growing in Philipstown and the old people say they represented the stations of the cross.
    There are no monuments of crosses in it but there are headstones.
    There are people buried in the church at Philipstown.
    Unbaptised children were buried in the graveyards.
