Notes for ALEXANDER CORNELIUS:

The Cornelius grave is at St Judes Church (Church of Ireland) at Coolrain (you will need help to find Coolrain) near The Pike of Rush Hall, but it is not far from Bally Colla where the Lalor's live or from the old farm at Bally Tarsna .

there is a newish church and just past this is the ruins of an old church with a high stone wall around it and high locked gates. It was totally overgrown and we had to scale the wall . The grave is to the left of the graveyard about 1/3rd of the way down .
