The following is a transcription of a few grave stones located in a small cemetery across the street from the parking lot of Croagh Patrick in Murrisk, Co. Mayo. The cemetery is behind the National Memorial to the Victims of the Great Famine which was dedicated during the summer of 1997. Also sending these to the Cork List.
