What is recorded here

Lying recumbent at the E end of the nave of Quin Abbey (CL042-027002-) adjacent to a side altar near the crossing tower. A limestone graveslab (L 0.9m; Wth 0.43m tapering to 0.23m at the top; D 0.07m). According to Westropp (1892-4, 279) the inscription in English reads ‘[Here lies the [body of] Donough [Macna] Mara of Ba…… who de[cease]d 1654.’ The slab is very weathered and is broken right across the middle in two places. Only a small portion of the inscription is legible. Compiled by: Mary Tunney Date of upload: 8 May 2018
