What is recorded here

Children died young in Dromore and went into Lisnakilla, the rath whose name still carries that loss. The burial ground was recorded in the 1840s, yet no one has precisely located it since. What is missing is not the children or the place, but the line between memory and forgetting.

In the 1840s a children's burial ground was recorded in a rath (KE048-118----) called 'Lisnakilla' (OSNB, Molahiffe, no. 1, 14). It has not been precisely located.
