This was sent to me awhile ago. Hope it helps. Regards, Coral CUPPLES Woon Whitechurch Graveyard, Ballywalter O.S. 12 Grid Ref. 622699 This old graveyard is on a tertiary road from Ballyboley to the north end of Ballywalter, half a mile out of the town. It is in the townland of Whitechurch and parish of Ballywalter. The church is mentioned in the Taxation of 1306 as the Alba Ecclesia, a translation ot its Irish name, and the Archaeological Survey of County Down dates it from the 13th century. There are fragments of 3 Norman grave-slabs which have been mounted on the outside of the N.E. end of the building. They are of the standard pattern and 2 have swords and one a pair of shears. Transepts were added about the 15th century but that on the south has disappeared completely while that on the north is partly incorporated into modern grave enclosures. The church survived the Elizabethan and Cromwelliam wars and was still in use in 1657 though with only a thatched roof. It was finally abandoned after the new church had been erected at Balligan in 1704 to serve the needs of Ballywalter, Ballyhalbert and Innishargy parishes. The old site was then used purely as a graveyard and when a new church was needed for the rising population of Ballywalter it was built in the town ( 1849 ). Parish registers of Ballywalter date from the period of the new church; baptisms from 1845 , marriages from 1850 and burials from 1844. First Ballywalter Presbyterian registers also exist; baptisms from 1824 , marriages from 1845. The second Presbyterian Registers for baptism date from 1820 and marriage from 1845. The oldest gravestones are in the church but unfortunately are broken and worn. One of these has a date 1663 and the Makie stone is probably earlier. The oldest complete stone is dated 1667 (Faris). Most of the older graves are to the south of the church both inside and beyond the circular path. The Dunleath (Mulholland) enclosure is to the north of the church and most of the graves to this side date from the present century. The graveyard is well kept and has roses, honeysuckle and escallonia bushes scattered around. It is open from dawn to dusk throughout the year. Lusk Here lieth the body of Grace Lusk alias Drinnan, wife of Capt. Arthur Lusk, who departed this life 15 Aug 1733 aged 33. Also Ann Lusk alias Cupples who departed this life 03 Jul 1802 aged 77. Also Captain Arthur Lusk who circumnavigated the globe with Lord Anson, he departed this life 09 Apr 1808 aged 94 years.

Hello all, Just a guess that my ancestors who have been "lost" in Donegal may actually have come from Derry... Has anyone ever come across a John CRAIG, farmer in Co. Derry? His son Robert (b.ca 1775 in Donegal)was a student of Dr. John LAMY ca. 1790....and Dr. Lamy is said to have lived at or near Moneymore then. Trying to leave no stone unturned. Any help/suggestions welcome! ===== regards, Donna Mendes [email protected] __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Great stuff seeking new owners in Yahoo!
