Cemeteries in Laois
« on: Tuesday 25 October 05 18:52 UTC (UK) »

I have recorded over 150 cemetery headstone records in Laois. This recording took over 2 years and is the largest in Ireland. These records are available for free  if you contact my website and  request the cemetery(s) you require. Put your requested cemetery(s) in the message section.

Thanking you.

Hi,
If you would be so kind, could you take a look for any Grady's in Ballaghmore? At the moment I am stuck at my great-grandfather John Grady born about 1856 at a farm (possibly still owned by the Grady family) near Ballaghmore.
Many Thanks,
Mike

Hello, We are looking for a William Rooney, who we know lived in Ballybrophy, but that is all. He probably died in the 1940's or 1950's. Can you help?
Thanks Helen

Would you be so kind as to see if there are some Moore's amid your records? They were said to have been in Mountrath but I've never been able to verify more than their presence in Queens County.

I'd be so grateful for any help!

Many thanks,
Brenda

Do have any knowledge of any Rooney's buried probably in the Rathdowney or Garryduff  (Errill) areas.

Hi Jack
Any chance you would be able to look for the surname Becton.
Much appreciate your reply.

Hi Seymor,

I now have over 80 cemetery records around Laois, but no Becton in my records.
I have covered most areas of Laois, but if there is somewhere you would like me to check, I will, in the meantime I will keep checking, and foward names if I come across them.
Best wishes

Many thanks.

I believe at some time the Bectons came from Laois but which area I have no idea. They are a hard family to track down.

But I do appreciate your input.

Happy Easter to you and yours

Hello, again, Seymor,

Just checked the Laois phone book,
no Becton listed, but 1 in Kildare (Athy)
and 1 in Kilkenny.

Thanks again.
There is a family of Bectons around the Dublin region but we cannot find a connection to one another. Because records for my family are difficult to find we cannot find a connection. Maybe one day.

regards Seymor
