Hi, my name is Marion and I live in Brisbane, Qld, Australia.  I have been trying to find the graves for my gg grandparents - as named above.  I have visited Ireland but had no success wqith this search - or online either.

 

Martin PURCELL was born abt 1810, married Catherine PURCELL on 16 November 1839 in Firoda and died on 31 March 1874 in Castlecomer, Kilkenny.

My gg grandmother Catherine PURCELL as born about 1812 in Firoda, Castlecomer, Kilkenny and died on 24 August 1885 in Castlecomer, Kilkenny.  They had 6 chidlren that I know of and 3 of them as far as I know, cmae to Australia and I have their details.  I have only recently discovered their parents' names.

 

AS far as I know, Martin's parents were Tobias PURCELL and Mary/Margaret HOSEY

and Catherine's Parents were Michael PURCELL and Honor BUGGY

 

Therefore I am seeing the gravesites for my gg grandparents and my ggg grandparents also, if any of these are available so that when it is safe to visit Ireland again, I will be able to visit these gravesites.

Thank you so much for any help you maybe able to offer.
