Hello, my name is Scott Bulger and I am visiting from the United States. I believe my Great Great Grandfather is buried someplace in Nagle Paish. Can anyone advise how many cemeteries are in the area? My hope is to find his headstone and meet any local Bulger family. I am in Dublin now (Sep 23, 2020) and complete my week quarantine Monday. Thanks!
Scott

Hi,
As you are isolating..... this link is for the Tipperary Studies, when you open it, drill down to Gravestone Inscriptions, there are 3 graveyards for Nenagh listed.
Sorry but you have to look at each section. I did have a quick look and didn't see any Bulger in Nenagh.https://tipperarystudies.ie/digitisation-project/
You say Nagle Parish.....If it is now known as Neddans, this is near Ardfinnan.
https://www.townlands.ie/tipperary/iffa-and-offa-west/neddans/ardfinnan/neddans-nagle/You may need to get a copy of his death record, this would be in St Joseph's Hospital Nenagh.
It's 4 Euro for the short record. This may tell you where he was living at the time of death.
Or,
use this link, the image is not on line but you could get it here, when you open it type in Thomas Bulger, cllick in the box and follow the links.

You would really need to know more names. He could be buried anywhere.

Jane, I sent you email with additional information. Thank you so much for offering to help! Here is a copy of what I sent:
My Great, Great, Great grandfather is Thomas Jr.
His father was Thomas Sr., who married Mary Love, but we have no other information on them other than the birth of Thomas Jr. in 1809.
Thomas Jr. married Mary Maher. They had one son, John Bulger, born Feb 27 1835, who left for America. John married Cathryn Barry on Nov 9, 1863 in Brooklyn NY. He died Feb 27, 1929 in Asonia Connecticut at age 93.
I hope to travel to Nenagh on Wednesday to look at St. Mary’s graveyard in the hope of finding a headstone. I realize this is a long shot! I can spend several days there if there is a chance of meeting with anyone.
