I would guess the most likely would be the Kilmeena townland on the west side of the N 59 to Westport, located about midway between the towns. There is a current church there, but the cemetery may be older. There is also a Kilmeena church ruin (which I'll be visiting in 10 days or so), a bit closer to Westport. It's on the east side of the highway, just on the north shore of Ballin Lough. This is a Patrician site, but the church is of somewhat newer vintage.....and I want to see what's there. I don't know if there is a burial ground associated with this site, but if I had to guess, I'd go with the first one I mentioned.
