Hi
 I am very curious about this church because I have been researching the Glovers. I have been told one of my ancestors was buried in a vault in this church. Her name was Catherine Matailda Glover and there's an memorial plaque of Catherine inside this church? Does anyone know if this is true?
Catherine was an roman catholic, she was an organist for this church for many years and same goes for her husband Prof. John William Glover. They were well known musical family in Dublin for many years. Their children were also well known conductors, composers. harpists and opera singers.

I would love to see the picture of memorial plaques in this church

Any info would be appericated
Best wishes
Kerry

Hi,
What a coincidence! I was in the Cathedral just the day before you posted, looking for this very plaque. It's now kind of hidden away within the shop/office area, but I was allowed in to see it. Only my phone-camera with me and the photo is awful, but I've managed to transcribe the wording (attached)
