I have just discovered that some Huggards, which I think are connected to me, are buried in a family vault in 'the ancient churchyard in Ballyseedy, Kerry'. Can anyone tell me where this is?

Hi Jaylay,
I photographed the headstones last year, I have a Huggard one.

Hi Brendan
Thanks for your reply - which Huggard headstones do you have photos of? I have a whole tangle of Huggards, who were Church of Ireland or Methodists, who originate from Clahane, and Tralee. I will PM you my email address

Hi Judy,
I have PM'd you, the headstone referrs to Amelia Huggard and her mother.

Dear Brendan
I have ancestors in both Ballyseedy and Ballymacelligot cemeteries that I would be interested in tracing.
Do you know if headstone images or inscriptions have been indexed online anywhere? When I visited in 2006 there were a group working on a Ballyseedy compilation.
