Very impressive Vasaborg!
Do you mid if I ask what the information source is? If it's a list that you have when was it recorded? The reason that I ask is because I'm thinking that it may have headstone inscriptions recorded before some of the headstones fell over or became unreadable..

Thank you so much for this information.  We didn't know about the Lee connection. Would you happen to know what part of the graveyard the headstone is located? Many thanks

I recorded all the inscriptions in Ballygunner in 1995. Sorry I don't know where its located if you write to the Parish Priest at the Church of St. Joseph and Benildus, Newtown Road Waterford City they have a map that would locate it.
