Hi Spencer,

That's a bit to vague, I've over 120 recorded as cemeteries, not surnames, so I would have to check every cemetery and time  will not permit that.
If you check Griffiths Valuation it will give you 9 Spencers in Laois.

Hi Jack,

My Walsh ancestors are from Cuddagh. My gr-gr-grandfather was William Walsh born 1884 and moved to Hoboken, New Jersey here in the States. I see from your cemetery list that two of his brothers are listed: I have a Joseph Walsh born abt 1890 in Cuddagh and a Finton Walsh born abt 1894 in Cuddagh.

Are you aware of any Walsh family still in the area?

Lavinia,

I am intersted in any Walsh info that you might have from Mountrath. My Walsh family is from Cuddagh.

A check of the local phone book shows no Walsh around that area at the present time. There is a local man who is the Registrar of the local cemetery and he might be of use, but I cannot put his phone number here, so if you contact me by PM I will supply that.

Seanmac,

You are one of the unsung heroes of RootsChat. Everytime I visit the Laois site (and sometimes on my travels through other counties) I come across your posts.

They are a mine of information. Your patience is without end. Thank you for the help and advice you give out so freely.

Dara.

Thank you very much,
Seanmac
