Help with Molony headstone from Templehollow Cemetery
« on: Wednesday 02 January 13 13:47 GMT (UK) »
Hi,

I have been sent some photos of a headstone from Templehollow graveyard, just outside Killaloe, Co. Clare. What I can transcribe is as follows:

"To the memory of Michl Molony of Killaloe
who departed this life the 6th Nov. 1845 aged 18 years
And his wife Honora Molony alias
Drinke who died ? Nov ?
aged 32 years

[then some Latin]"

Would it be possible to find out any more about these people, and feel free to poke holes in my transcribing efforts, I'm sure I have some parts wrong.

My own Moloney family comes from Killaloe, and the surrounding areas, and I believe there could be a connection between this headstone and my family.

Thanks,

David
