Cemetery in Delgany
« on: Sunday 14 June 09 12:05 BST (UK) »
I am going to be in Wicklow soon and am trying to find the location of the cemetery that my great grandparents are in.  I have been told that they were buried in Delgany.  The cemetery was overgrown and locked up so that you gould not get in.  Does this cemetery so familiar to anyone?

not very familiar with the town but there is a church and graveyard visible in Delgany on Google Maps - satellite view at : http://www.rootschat.com/links/06hk/

You can switch to the map view to get a better idea of the location.
there may be more than one church & graveyard in the town

are you looking for a Church or Ireland or Catholic graveyard ?

Cantwell's memorials includes two Delgany graveyards

  Christ Church (C. of I.)
  Old Graveyard (C. of I.)

but the maps included is not detailed enough to figure out the exact location on a current map.

It looks like the Google map is showing the Christ Church (CofI)
a photo of this church and the old graveyard are included here :

apparently The Old Burial Ground has been restored and is open for visitors..
