Some years ago maybe 10 or even more I remember reading an Irish newspaper about that workhouse and the burial, something about a golf course and finding a gravestone on it... it was called the “Irish Holocaust” locally... will see what I can find although as you have been looking for years my guess is you already have read all about it and researched for any other details

Found some bits!

Yes it was in the independent 2005
