It doesn't seem likely, but you never know. I think some Newport residents are buried there, at least it did go the other way...several locals told us that some Sandhill residents are buried at Burrishoole. And Sandhill is sort of considered part of Newport, at least it's written that way in the mailing address. Megan __________________________________________________ Do You Yahoo!? Yahoo!
