Those of you who know me, know that I have been transcribing gravestones mainly in the County Laois or Queen's County area since about 1998. Some of you know that today I photograph the gravestones and some of you have seen me say that there are stones which I could read in the past which I cannot read or find today. Some of you know that I have indexed the names of the Heads of Household listed in the 1901 census for county Laois. Some of you know that much of the material on any of my web sites is unavailable anywhere outside of Ireland - and some of you know that I have much more material than you see on any of my web sites. So, I am going to try and bring some more of what I have on-line. Below, is a transcription of some gravestones in Aghmacart or Aughmacart, Co. Laois, Ireland. These stones were read in 1999. Back then, I was following recommendations for Irish genealogists - that only those stones which had dates pre 1880 should be read, and some others with older ...

I have loaded the photographs which I couldn't read from Dunmore, Co. Kilkenny, Ireland to this website and then I have loaded the photographs which I was able to read with an index to the names found on the stones to my From Ireland website. This graveyard surrounds the Protestant or Church of Ireland church, but some of the people buried in the graveyard are Catholics - this is quite often the way and I hate to ever label any graveyard as Church of Ireland because sometimes people whose surnames are on the stones won't be bothered looking when they see that it is a Church of Ireland graveyard! Photographs of the church are in the first album below.

Still cleaning up my folders and still with Kildare county. I've loaded the photos I have of gravestones taken in the county council graveyard outside Kildare town. It's a big graveyard and needless to say I didn't take photographs of all the stones in it. Also, it's an active graveyard, meaning that people are still being buried in it. It's an older graveyard in the vicinity that I'd be more interested in getting photographs for! I've not gone through these photos and indexed them the way I am doing with Kilkenny and Laois. I've simply named each photo as per the surnames on the stone and I've divided them up into two albums. Surnames B-H Surnames I-W The thing is that lots of times different surnames appear on a stone so if you do find any photos with your surname of interest be sude to check the names on the photos in the second album to see if that surname occurs on any other stones.
