The present day cemetery in Dromcollogher is located across the road from
the present day church. This graveyard surrounds the ruins of St Bartholomew's
church. The oldest headstone that we found in the cemetery was dedicated
to the memory of the Reverend Patrick Quin who was a priest in Dromcollogher.
Fr. Quin died on the 29th of April 1778.
