Title: Catholic Cemetary for Aghaloughan
Post by: polsec on Tuesday 12 June 12 23:36 BST (UK)

Can anyone tell me the name of the cemetary that served St. MacNissi's Church in Randalstown in the 1880's?  I am looking for Devlin or McCormick families who lived in Drummaul, possibly Aghaloughan.  Would anyone have access to records for this cemetary?  I don't have first names but Ellen is one possibility.  I wish I had more information.  Thank you for any help.

Hi
looks like the Church/Chapel had its own graveyard

Is there anyone living in the area of the cemetary who might be able to check for graves of Devlin and McCormick families?  I would be most appreciative.  I wish I could go there personally but I live in the USA.   Some day I would like to visit the area where my family's ancestor's lived.  Thank you to anyone who can help me.

I live about half a mile from the cemetery. Send me a pm with the details you are looking for and I’ll search the gravestones for you.
