Roscommon / Re: Assylinn Graveyard
« on: Tuesday 22 March 22 23:50 GMT (UK) »
The "Roscommon Herald," of July 4, reports the death of Mrs. Mary Sloan, of Boyle, Ireland. The deceased lady was a sister of Mr. T. Hicks McLean, a Northcote (Victoria, Australia) resident of 25 years' standing, and mayor of the municipality for two years in succession. Speaking of the late lady the "Herald' says:-" Mrs. Sloan, ,who .belonged to an old and respected Roscommon family, was the daughter of the late Mr. S. McLean, Boyle, whose name is treasured and honored in the history of the old town, was of an extremely charitable nature, and was foremost in every movement which tended for the uplifting of the community. Coupled with her esteemed husband, son and daughter, she did, throughout her life in Boyle, acts of charity and goodness which stand on record, and earned for herself in the affection of the people a monument more enduring than brass." Many wreaths were received from townsmen and public institutions of Boyle, and the remains were interred in Assylinn cemetery in the presence of a very large gathering of prominent citizens.

Roscommon / Assylinn Graveyard
« on: Tuesday 22 March 22 23:43 GMT (UK) »
Hi from Australia,
Wondering if anyone could assist with finding a gravestone(s) in the Assylinn Graveyard.
I found an excert from the Roscommon Herald showing that Mary Sloan (Mary Ann McLean) d.1914 was interred at the Assylinn Graveyard. Also if her Mother, Susan McLean (Huston) and father, Samuel McLean may be there as well.
Many Thanks
