What is recorded here
Kilskeer graveyard holds a table tomb for Hugh O’Reilly and Katherine Plunkett, marked by two crests inset above it. The right plaque displays a diagonal line, a castle above and a steed below, identifying the Plunkett line. Stone and memory align there: two names, one household, still visible beneath an open sky.
