    Graveyards.
    There are 6 graveyards that I know of in this parish, the names of which are, Rathangan, Kilcowan, Duncormick, Killag, Ambrosetown and St. Tenants.
    The graveyard of St. Tenant's or Scar is very old, and not used now-a-days.
    The tomb-stones are now used as stands for ricks and stacks of corn or hay.
    It is diamond - shaped, with a river running beside it. It is surrounded by a high ditch on which grow ash and elm trees.
