    3. If you go to the Rops Davies web site and look under churches you will find information on the Rathfriland/Drumgath churches and graveyards. Assuming the Morrows were Protestant they are likely buried in one of the Presbyterian graveyards. The Church of Ireland (St. John's) does not seem to have a graveyard. At <irishgenealogy.ie> there is a pay-for-view arrangement wherein yo give the surname and hope you find the right ones. I tried this web site and could not get it to work but it may be down for repairs. Alternatively you could pay a researcher to look up the burials or try and get a copy of the gravestone inscriptions if printed by the Ulster Historical Foundation. However these mostly just go up to the turn of the last century. You might try <bt.com> and see if there are still Waddells listed in Rathriland or surrounding area. I have a copy of North Irish Roots Vol. 8 No. 2 which has an article on the Waddells in Ulster. If it is of interest send me your postal address and I will send you a photocopy.
