About ten years ago a cousin visited Ireland and found the grave of a Gallahue ancestor in a cemetery next to the ruins of a church. Unfortunately she doesn't remember where it was located, except that she thought it was in County Limerick and there were high hills in the distance. I'm attaching a couple photos taken at the time.
I will be traveling to Ireland In late October, and hope to visit that cemetery. I hope someone can offer advice about where it might be. I think it might be near the towns of Anglesboro, Ballylanders or Galbally. I think that because in reviewing Griffiths Valuation I found Gallahues (or variations of that surname) living in that area.
Thank you so much for your help!!

Dear Sir or Madam
I live in the next village to Ballylanders . the main Pub in the village is owned by the Gallahue family which originally came from Anglesborough . I enclose their landline telephone no so that you may make contact with the family . 00 353 62 46644 . this no includes the international dial code so just get dialling . Just remember we are 5 hours ahead of EST.
Respectfully yours
