- There is a graveyard in my district in Ileigh Parish Borrisoleigh Co. Tipperary. The people remembered burials taking place there. Unbaptised children is also buried in the graveyard. The graveyard is still used. The local families have still graves in it and buried there. Long ago there were an old graveyard in a field of Jermiah Darcy townland Killamoyne parish of Borrisoleigh Co. Tipperary. Some of the old people long ago used to be buried there and also children. None of the people remember any people to be buried there. One day there were a man ploughing in that field and he ploughed up human bones and then he did not plough anymore of it. It was never ploughed since.(continues on next page)
