You say, "They were Roman Catholic, and those who stayed in Cavan may be buried at Clifferna." Could you tell me, please, what is Clifferna? and how could I find places where folks may be buried in Cavan? Is there a list of cemeteries or churches? perhaps by religion??? Any help you could give me would be wonderful. Thanks in advance. I'm looking for parents of Samuel Hart, b. 1815, and his wife Rebecca Kelly, both apparently from Co. Cavan or nearby. They married, then went to Canada, and I have all the information from that point down to me. Samuel and Rebecca were my grandfather's grandparents.

And what of Annie, Michael, Francis Dowd?? Are you related? I am. they are from Clifferna -- right across the street from the Church. Annie died recently -- 4 years ago? Annie never married. Michael lived in NYC I think. An earlier Francis Dowd married my relative Annie Fitzpatrick from Tulliinchion. Once again...will try to find pictures to post. My Fitzpatrick family was at Knocktaggert too. About 1970s, my cousin married a man who inherited land from a brother who bought it from Knocktaggert farmer. Beautiful land.
