Sacred Ground

Clonleigh cemetery. We know James McCallion and Mary Hagney (great-grandparents) are buried here, although not sure where.

Paul's grandmother Margaret McGinley McCallion is also buried here.





This is a beautiful, peaceful place, with souls from the past brushing by your shoulder as you walk through.

Plot of the graveyard from the same site:

James and Mary are likely in one of these two areas on that map:

1. one of those stones marked as Illegible

2. one of those plots that have no stones at all

or #3, they are buried in a plot that was then re-used (not uncommon!)
