As far as I know the old graveyard is not attached to any church.  I’ll see if I can contact the secretary of the graveyard committee to see if she can provide more information.

I took photographs of all the headstones about 5 years ago.  The oldest Bingham marker is for Robert and Margaret Bingham who died in 1859 and 1869 respectively.  I can send you photos if you send me a PM with your email address.

Hi

I have photos of a map of the graves which gives names on them.  Nots sure of this is who is burried or who owns the grave.  If you PM me your email address I will sent them to you.

Regards

Good work on the headstones.  Check out the Ulster Journal of Archaeology Vol 7 p146 which has transcripts from a couple of headstone now gone (as far as I know).
