Cemetery Mapping

An Cumann Staire will begin mapping of an Sean relig, The Farm (the old cemetery) on Saturday 12 November 2016. Old Graves expert, John Tierney who is travelling all the way from Waterford will provide training to the volunteers. If you would like to get involved you can contact An Cumann Staire by email mo************************@***il.com

In the meantime here is some information about historical mapping of graveyards from the Moycullen Heritage website which is hosted as part of the Irish Community Archive Network. It is a joint initiative of Galway County Council Heritage Office and the National Museum of Ireland – Country Life.
