'Buried in Time' - A History of Moynalty Burial Grounds
Discover the rich and often overlooked history beneath Moynalty’s soil.
This talk explores the evolution of Moynalty’s burial grounds from their earliest recorded use in 1729 to the present day. Through historical records, local lore, and surviving headstones, we’ll trace how the community’s story is told through those laid to rest—from famine and faith to family and forgotten names. This talk offers a unique opportunity to connect with the people, customs, and changes that have shaped our community over nearly three centuries. The talk will finish with a guided tour of Moynalty Old Graveyard. Talk delivered by local history enthusiast Paul McCabe.
Tea, coffee and refreshments afterwards.
