Many thanks Maggie,  I had to telephone Ballymena Council a few years ago and they reluctantly looked up my James Ross of Tullygarley, so now I have a bit more to work on. 
Great stuff!!

Is this 'new' map an altered version of the map included in the wee booklet listing all the names interred there (which I have).

The 'new' map is the one drawn up for the council in 1973 by W & M Given, architects when they drew up a current list of plot owners. I suspect it is the same map as you have. There are 688 individual graves numbered. The old plot numbers as recorded in the 1870s were numbered in the order people claimed them and refer to groups of individual graves.
