As you've been informed, there is apparently only one cemetery within the town of Kilcock. However, Kilcock is right on the border with Meath, and there are a couple of possibilities just outside the town and across the border. Just a few hundred yards outside of Kilcock, on the R 125 road to Dunshaughlin - and across the border into Meath - is the Little Chapel of the Assumption (I think that's the name - at least it's an RC church). There may be a graveyard there. If not, there certainly is one in the townland of Rodanstown, a mile or two to the NE of this Chapel along a minor road. At the NW end of Kilcock town, the R 158 road which goes through Summerhill to Trim, has a cemetery in the townland of Balfeaghan. I believe that this graveyard would be at the ruined church in that townland, right next to the R 158 road, less than one mile from Kilcock. Those places might be alternative burial sites for people living in Kilcock, as they are so near the town. - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - - Pete Schermerhorn, in the glorious Berkshire hills of western Massachusetts
