Killybegs Graveyards Website

The Killybegs Local Training Initiative have been working on developing a website that contains the details of every grave in Killybegs' three graveyards, St Catherine's, St John's and the large graveyard on the Shore road (Killybegs Graveyard).  This represents a huge amount of painstaking work carried out by trainees who attend the LTI.

Every grave can found using the search feature on the website and at present St Catherine's and St John's memorials can be explored using an interactive map. A map for Killybegs Graveyard is in progress (over 600 graves).

This site is very useful for both genealogical and historical research.  It is also useful for people from Killybegs who are living in distant parts.

Each grave has its own page and contains a photograph with a zoom feature, the inscription on the memorial and details regarding stone type and decoration etc. 

Below is an example of a page on the website - the grave is of the Hamilton family in St Johns Church.

 The site is a work in progress but the almost all the graves are accessible through the website.
