What is recorded here

Grave Yard occupies the ground beside a church in County Louth, Ireland. It preserves eighteenth century grave markers that mark the boundary between living memory and forgotten distance. The stones suggest a busy local faith where death was expected, recorded and accepted without fear.
The following description is derived from both the published 'Archaeological Inventory of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1986) and the 'Archaeological Survey of County Louth' (Dublin: Stationery Office, 1991). In certain instances the entries have been revised and updated in the light of recent research. Date of upload/revision: 17 July 2007 Graveyard around church (LH017-084001-). Some interesting eighteenth century grave markers.
