    lived in Ballyheigue Castle they held Divine Service there every Sunday as they were protestants. There is no worship held there now, because there are no protestants in the Parish.
    The other Graveyard is situated in the townland of Kell on the western side of the parish. There is an old (ledgen) legend told about this place. In olden times Bishop Erc lived in a monastery there but it is now in ruins. One night a light was seen across the Bay and next day Bishop Erc went to Barrow and found St Brendan. He baptised him in Weather's Well.
    No other people are buried
