What is recorded here

Comerford found a rude stone vessel in the Lisnevagh graveyard, likely marking where new life entered the world. Children may have touched its rough edge or parents may have held infants above it during stormy nights. The font still stands as a witness to joy, fear and continuity in County Carlow.

Comerford (1886, Vol. II, 352-3) noted 'a rude' stone vessel, probably a baptismal font in graveyard (CW009-006002-). Reference: Comerford, Rev.
