Power (1896, 5-6) states that, 'Close by the remains of the quondam [former] Friary [the Franciscan friary TS085-004004], and separated from the latter by little more than the width of the public road, is the ancient cemetery of Killmoleran, from the church of which the parish is named...Not a trace of the ancient church survives; even tradition has no record of its exact site. The cemetery is popularly known as Relig na muc, or the Pig's Cemetery, though the origin of the sobriquent is unknown'. This church (TS085-004011-) and graveyard were erroneously located at the graveyard associated with the modern Franciscan church but have been re-located to the graveyard at the junction of Mass Road and Mothel Road which is known locally as Relig na Muc.
