On a trip to Lower Ormond several years ago, I found the gravesite of my gggrandfather/mother (and other family members) in a 'difficult to find' graveyard.  I would like to know the name of the Church/graveyard if possible.  Details are:  going north on L438, we turned on to the L5042 toward the town of Aglish.  There was a overgrown lane on the right hand side not too far from where we turned.  A steeple could be seen from the road, but nothing else.  Driving down that lane, we came to a gate...parked the car, entered thru the gate, and found the ruins of an old Church (did not see a name) with an associated graveyard.  (If you drive to the 'new church' on the right hand side of L5042, you have gone too far.)  We randomly walked that graveyard, right into the family plot of Patrick and Sarah Meara of Kilcommon! - and other members of our family.  Any help is appreciated!  Thanks.
