Gravestone Inscriptions In Killinan Graveyard

Shown here, alphabetically, are inscriptions  taken from the headstones in Killinan Graveyard, Nenagh Road, Thurles, Co Tipperary.

The inscriptions are exactly as found, including all obvious misspellings. There are also some rather surprising variations of spelling of names and same have not been changed or in anyway altered.

The work of compiling these headstone inscriptions was painstakingly undertaken by Mr James Ryan, Dublin Road, Thurles, and it is the hope of ‘Hidden Tipperary’ that this information will be of some assistance to persons involved in tracing their family roots, here in Thurles, Co.Tipperary.
