Hello,
I've been trying to get some information on my grandmother, Cathering Gibbons. I will be in Ireland starting July 17 and traveling to Turloughmore, which is where we believe the family believes we are from. I would like to find the grave of my grandfather, Mark Gibbons, but have had trouble determining where it is. (there seem to be at least two of him.) I would also like to see the church where my grandmother was christened and where my great grandparents were married. (It only says Lackagh on the church marriage record. Ditto my Nana's church baptism record.)
How can I best find churches and cemetaries? Should I write anyone at those places to ask for permission and to look?
Thanks,
Betty J. Ruth

Betty:
I suggest you e-mail the church in Lackagh. Scroll down the link, sixth parish.
