Kilwarlin I have been told is the name of St Colman's on the Bottier road, moira, where I am led to believe is the only burial ground for RC Magherlain parish. Hopefully this information is correct.
Thanks Laura

Evidently not. The burial entries on the page you post show entries for other locations, such as Magherlain.

Kiltaglassan - not sure what you are implying with this post.
- Are you pointing to spelling variations?
- Or disputing that there is more than one graveyard?

These "variant names" are not synonyms. The are often - and in this case are - the names of the different civil parishes comprised within the Catholic parish. Different graveyards are clearly being referenced in the parish funeral register.

Think I would take it that John Smyth is buried Kilwarlin as you (unilove18) said it is entitled Register of Funerals, so unclear. The R.C parish of Magheralin encompassed several civil parishes St. Colman’s Kilwarlin is Moira (Lurganville Townland), but also apparent are Aghagallon, Clare and Lurgan which are not in the R.C parish. Drumnabreeze is certainly much closer to Magheralin than Moira https://www.townlands.ie/down/iveagh-lower-upper-half/magheralin/ballyleany/drumnabreeze/
The register will be all there is for the parish, though the priests may be able to confirm the interpretation.

Some R.C. Burials may well have continued in the ancient parish graveyard too aka Magheralin Old Church of Ireland graveyard with post-reformation church ruins on the site of the monastery founded by St. Colman.
