What is recorded here

Folklore collected from Glenderry School recorded the following tradition about a children’s burial ground beside Glandahalin church; ‘There are three grave yards in our parish, one in Keel [KE013-023003-], one in north of Ballyheigue village, and the other in Glendahillon. There are the relics of an old church [KE014-001----] in Glendahillon; it is now called the "Seipilín" and the unbaptised children are buried there’ (The Schools’ Collection, Volume 0417C, Page 02_030; https://www.duchas.ie/en/cbes/5236104/5232597/5236972?ChapterID=5236104).
