This page of inscriptions from the Templedouglas Graveyard was started with inscriptions provided by Jerry Gallagher, Muriel Sherlock, and Joan Broussard

who kindly photographed and recorded them for me in 2004-2005.

 

This year (2007) a wonderful group of people, consisting of Doug and Ginny with their boys Kieran & Peter, Ginny's mother May and also Alice,

traipsed around the graveyard with pen and paper, recording headstone inscriptions.

 

Bernie Donaghey also provided some inscriptions too!

 

The result of all that work is below

 

Notes:

1. The inscriptions are grouped into surnames, then sorted by the name of the first person inscribed on each headstone. In some cases, different surnames are included, so if you can't find a name you're after, use your browser's search to find them.

2. Where a name is in green, it is linked to the email address of a descendant.
