Local knowledge and years of practice

Will check Boleran for gravestones when I get a chance.

Thank you.  My dad reckons my granddad had a sibling in ballentrae (Ayrshire).  I'm thinking it would need to be Margaret if any of them 🤔 Where do I start with this?

I tried attaching a picture of the grave I have - it won't send.  Under Mckeever it has "crockindolg".  Is this a clue to anything?

Crockindolg (written as Crockindollagh in valuation books) is a townland near Gorran. I had a look at the latest available book (stops in 1929) and no McKeevers there.

I thought it might of been a town/village.  Be interesting to find their death certificates now to see if this is where they died

Patrick J McKeevor from what i can see was the only one to marry. He married Annie O'Hagan of Brockaghbuoy. O'Hagan seems to be a big connection in that area. There are a lot of headstones with this name on it!

PJ is buried in St Joseph's Glenullin Churchyard - (he must have moved from shanlongford when he married to Brockaghbuoy in Glenullin)
