Notes: 

This black marble heart shaped plaque with gold inlaid script, measuring 1ft4" high x 1ft4" wide is set on a small black marble plinth.  It is placed by the graveyard's grotto but their remains are more than likely, although not mentioned on headstone, buried in the Walsh family grave, see GA-SRMY-0035.  Whilst their address and dates of death are not recorded on the plaque, we were able to source them from church records.Edward Walsh is supposedly the last person to have been buried in An tSean Reilig.
