  1. Local Graveyards

    Share Share Post
    There are three graveyards in our Parish - two in Ballymore and one in Bohr, and all are in use.
    The one in Bohr is very ancient and is all around the Chapel, it is level. There are many very old tombstones, some upright and some flat.
    Of the two cemeteries in Ballymore one of the is around the Parish Church and is very well kept. There are neat walks in it and some large trees growing there. Many of the tombstones are very beautiful.
    The other one is around the Protestant Church and is very ancient and very level. There are many very old tombstones here too, many of them are flat.
    There are two Parish Priests buried inside in Ballymore Church, Father Molloy and Father Gravans.
