What is recorded here

Donoghmore is an ogham stone from Kildare, discovered in 1902 by Lord Walter Fitzgerald in the northeast sector of Donaghmore graveyard, where tradition holds it marked an O'Farrell family grave. Measuring seventy-six centimetres long, the stone bears the name Nettavrecc, son of Muccoi Trenaluggo, though scholars still debate whether the second part reads Koii or something closer to Broic. It left that burial ground and reappeared in Dublin, denied the quiet company of the dead it once named.

This is the present location for the ogham stone from Donoghmore, Co. Kildare (KD006-005002-). Discovered in 1902 by Lord Walter Fitzgerald (1903-5, 26) in the NE sector of Donaghmore graveyard (KD006-005004-), where, according to O'Hanluain (1935-45, 170), it marked an O'Farrell family grave. Macalister (1945, 130-1, no. 26) recorded the stone's dimensions (0.76 x 0.36 x 0.23m, converted from Macalister) and read the inscription as: NETTAVRECC [KOI] MAQI MUCCOI TRENALUGGO. McManus (1997, 66, 79) suggested that there was enough room for a more likely NETTAVROICC or NETTAVROECC and that Macalister's KOI was doubtful.
