What is recorded here

Cloghan Burial Gd. is a 20th-century graveyard in County Mayo, Ireland, located 30m north of Templeancloghan Church and its older graveyard. It appeared on maps only by 1930, suggesting the community needed more room for the dead as the century grew. The land may have held families who outlived the churchyard, their names lost but their presence still shaping the quiet field.
