Burial in New Ross

According to the Garda report the remains were found in quicklime in a shallow grave. The remains were found on the site of the old Bridewell or gaol of New Ross. As the disposition of the burial suggested that it was modern, it was not investigated the NMI. The remains were not acquired. (Cahill and Sikora 2011, vol. 2, 523) Compiled by: M. Cahill and M.
