Hello Karen,

This is a general response having viewed your previous posts. You mention Athlumney Cemetery in a previous post and the possibility of a headstone having been erected/transcribed. Back in the 1990’s The Irish Graves Registration Society  transcribed the headstones that remained and were part of two volumes of headstones in the 26 Counties . I understand copies of the books are held by Dublin City Library and if a headstone exists/existed it would no doubt have been entered in this publication.

Approaching them no doubt would be your next step.

Thank you for your reply. much appreciated.

I am in the uk and at the moment I cant get over to dublin. You wouldnt happen to know the name of the books,

or whether i could purchase them from??

thanks again for your help.

kind regards

karen

Hello Karen,

I would in this instance contact the library and state your interest in the cemetery and ask if they would forward a copy of the entries for your cemetery of interest or the individual(s) you are looking for (quote the society and approximate period of publication).

It is unlikely these books are in print and the cost of purchasing an existing set of books may be exorbitant.

Thank you so so much. I will definitely do that.
Regards
Karen
