Hello Christina,
Thank you for those suggestions. I have now seen the partial transcriptions for Killadriffe.
Sorry I should have been clearer with my question about cemeteries. I live in Australia where every cemetery has a register of the burials, not just those with headstones, and the register is kept by either the local council or a group who manage the cemetery (often a religious or non-religious Trust).
Based on responses that I have received in County Clare, I understand that funerals were generally not recorded in the Irish Catholic parish records before some date in the early 20th century.
I have read that Bansha Church cemetery contains a burial vault for the sole use of McCarthy family members and I would like to find out who is buried in that vault, if possible.
I will write to the Tipperary County Council and the Bansha Parish, separately, to see if either can help.
My McCarthy ancestors were Michael McCarthy & Margaret Power, who lived at Barnlough (they also referred to their home as Coolavunga). I have seen Margaret McCarthy nee Power's headstone which is in the Killadriffe cemetery (but not on that part transcription list), she died in 1852. Michael died later, probably before 1862, and I would like to know, if possible, where he was buried.
Thank you,
Michael
