This time I have indexed the names, year of death and placenames mentioned on the stones presented. This is only the first of a few sets of Portlaoise photographs and if you read the blog entry on my Irish Gravestone place you'll get some idea of the time taken to organise bringing a set of photos on line. Taking the photos is the easy part!! :-) Surnames appearing on these stones (some of these are secondary names on the stones and will not be found in alphabetical order - consult the Surname index to get the stone reference number) : Ahern - Allman - Aloway - Barry - Bergin - Bland - Bowe - Breen - Brennan - Brett - Brown - Buggy - Burke - Byrne - Cahill - Carroll - Chester - Clarke - Clear - Cleary - Coady - Commins - Connell - Conroy - Coonan - Cooney - Cripps - Culbert - Cummins - Cunningham - Dalton - Dargan - Dea - DeCourcy - Delaney - Dempsey - Dollard - Doody - Doran - Dowling - Doyle - Dunne - Dwane - Egan - Farrelly - Fennell - Finnegan - Fitzgibbon - Fitzpatrick - Flanagan - Flynn - Galloway - Ging - Gorman - Graham - Green - Guilfoyle - Hanlon - Haslam - Healy - Hendrix - Hennessy - Higgins - Hinds - Houlihan - Howard - Hunston - Hyland - Ireland - Irwin - Kavanagh - Keenan - Kehoe - Keogh - Kerry - Lacumber - Lalor - Larkin - Lawless - Lynch - Maher - Malone - Marum - Mathews - McCormack - McDonald - Mc!

Also, I have included a photograph taken of a map of the cemetery in the actual blog on this graveyard.
