    A grave yard is situated near the end of Barrack Street. Catholics and Protestants are buried there. As tradition goes, half the graveyard is consecrated, the part where the catholics are buried. When this was made a graveyard first, the people that belonged to the dead person were the only people allowed into the graveyard. The people were buried in old boxes with their name, age, position, religion, married or not, amount in famil. It was according to these things that they got their graves in the graveyard.
