St John and Sandys Marriage

The Parish church was in the town of Castlerea/Castlereagh which is in the parish of Kilkeevan, it was built 1818 - it's location on Church Road is indicated with the green 'B' marker in the map below. The late 19th Century OS maps show it as 'Trinity Church', it currently seems to be some sort of Arts Centre.

There was a older church in the town at the 'C' marker, no sign of the building at that location any more but it appears there's an old graveyard there.

Extract from Lewis' Topographical Dictionary of 1837 : "Kilkeevan, a parish, in the barony of Ballintobber, county of Roscommon and province of Connaught; containing, with the post-town of Castlerea, 10,867 inhabitants...
