Location – To the left of the cemetery entrance in the old section of the cemetery, within 20 yards of the group of 5 Moore headstones.

The top of this headstone has broken off and is not lying anywhere near the rest.  It does not look like there would be much text missing.  I presume that the missing Christian name is John, as there are plenty of other references to “the above John Moore” but unfortunately there are no references to townlands in the remaining text.

The inscription reads:

[        ] MOORE who died [            ] aged [     ].
