  1. There are seen Graveyards in the parish of Oulart. namely Oulart, The Ballagh, Castle Ellis, Kilcormack, Kyle, Meelnegh and Kilnamanagh
    The graveyards of Kilcormack, Kyle, Meelnagh and Kilnamanagh are not now used.
    The old graveyard in Kilcormack is round and Meelnagh is three-cornered.
    Trees surround Kilcormack and Kilnamanagh graveyards.

    There is a ruined church in both Kilcormack and Meelnagh graveyards, and also in Castle Ellis
    People are buried within the ruins of the church in Castle Ellis
    Local families sometimes use certain graveyards. Though they are far more distant than the parish graveyard.
    My grandfather's grandfather is buried in Castle Ellis and Fr. Michael Murphy who fell in 1798 is also buried there. There are people who fell in the same year buried in Meelnagh.
