Graveyards in use in 19th Century Waterford City?

[MoranD]

I'm very lost when it comes to understanding what graveyards were in use in the 2nd half of the 19th century Waterford City, and where to find relevant records for these. Hopefully someone can help. Drove to Waterford once to search - a lot of wasted time and effort. Planning another trip and would love plan the trip constructively.

1. In which graveyards could a Catholic from the Manor Street/Beresford Street area have been buried between about 1840-1900? Names, locations and religion would be wonderful.

2. Is it the case that some Catholics were buried in COI graveyards? If so, would the COI death records contain these people's death records?

3. When did Ballygunner Cemetry begin to be used to bury city dwellers?

Any help would be greatly appreciated. !!...

Ballygunner was opened in 1841, other Catholic graveyards for that period would be Holy Trinity Without , Ballybricken, and Saint Otteran's opened 1848, some burials also took place at Kilbarry and Kill St. Lawrence's graveyards.

Thanks Vasaborg, Really appreciate the information.

Very interested in Holy Trinity Without , Ballybricken, and Saint Otteran's.
Do you know if burial registers exist for these?

Also, could you tell me where these graveyards are?

Wonderful to have this good information, thanks again

Waterford City council has a register of deaths for St. Otterans, the graveyard is on the Cork Road, I don't think there is a burial register for Holy Trinity Without , Ballybricken, I have recorded all the monuments there, an entrance to the Church at Ballybricken is at the Mayor's Walk , as well as on Ballybricken.
