My Fees were so close to Cavan that they listed their place of residence as Swanlinbar. They were half a mile or less from the border. I know I need to check in both places. That is why I think they are in the old cemetery in Swanlinbar (can't remember the name right now). They are not in the records that are online, they are predominantly newer ones. I don't think that the old cemetery has been done.

The reason why S/bar is mentioned is that would be where the mail bags were delivered to, from there the local mail men would collect their letters for delivery to the people in their area. There may have been 5 or 6 mailmen needed to cover the catchment area of S/bar regardless of county lines which simply don't come into the equation. That whole strip of Cavan is only 4 or 5 mile wide between Fermanagh and Leitrim. There's a 16th century near S/bar too. Neither does the county line come into equation, local people were buried there not just from that county!
