What is recorded here

Childrens Bur Gd (Disused) is a circular burial ground in County Cork, Ireland, where rough grazing now covers numerous grave markers. One headstone still reads Honoria O Sullivan died 9th July 1815 aged 3 months, giving the place a small, brutal clarity. The wider field may have collected other short lives, yet only Honoria remains named.
