Folklore relating to burials in Kilcommon, Co. Tipperary

 


 

Where your Ryan ancestors were buried, isn't always near where they lived.

For example in this bit of folklore here from Kilcommon relating to graveyards, we see the following recorded;

"Many are taken long distances to be buried i.e. to Dunohill, Killanare, Killnarath, Upperchurch, Glankeen, Tower Hill, Tuam, Doon, Kilpatrick."
