2 St Marys Drumragh

3 St Marys Killyclogher Cappagh
4 St Marys Knockmoyle Cappagh

These are the most likely places,but as always if the family came from outside the parish he could be buried else were in a family plot?
Also but I think it opened later the Mixed graveyard on the Dublin road Omagh,Omagh Distrct Council owned,run and kept?
