KILSHARVAN GRAVEYARD CO. MEATH

HEADSTONES AND INSCRIPTIONS

Recorded by John McCullen in1980, updated 1987 with Ruth McCullen

Situation

Kilsharvan graveyard is situated along the south side of the road running from Duleek (2 ½ miles) to Julianstown on a bank overlooking the river Nanny.  It is enclosed on all sides by a wall, with gates to the main road and also to the adjacent property of the

Shorter family whose gardens and woodlands form the eastern, southern and western boundaries of the graveyard.  The ruins of the old church from which the townland takes its name are situated in the middle of the graveyard.

Historical note

The church was dedicated to Saint John the Baptist – “the bitter tongued one”, thus giving the name Cill Searbhain, and most probably dates from the twelfth century, when several churches and foundations were established in the locality by the Normans.  The Augustinian Monastry at Colpe, erected by Hugh de Lacy in 1182 was endowed with, amongst others, the tithes of the church at Kilsharvan.

Bishop Dopping in his visitation (1682-1685) describes the Church as “unrepaired since 1641” and also notes that all records of the church, bells, furniture, glazing. etc. are “wanting” .  He mentions that the churchyard is not fenced in. The Ordnance

Survey Field Name Books 1829 records the Patron Day of Kilsharvan as June 11.   “The parish, partly in Lower Duleek and partly in Upper Duleek, contains 2096 acres 2 roods, 12 perches statute measure, divided by the river Nanny to give blocks of 1528 acres and 568 acres, 40 acres are planted and 100 acres woodland. One half of the total area is in tillage and the other in pasture.”  There are “several Gentlemen’s Seats and the ruins of an old church in a burial ground”.

Samuel Lewis in his Topographical Dictionary of Ireland (1837) records the parish as containing 487 inhabitants of which 169 are in the Hamlet, which contains about 30 houses.  He remarks “ Here is plenty of limestone and on the Nanny water are extensive bleach works, the property of A. Armstrong, Esq. (ancestor of the Shorter

family), contiguous to whose tastefully laid out grounds are the picturesque ruins of the old church, the burial ground of which is still used”.  Tradition suggests that the mill has been here since the sixteenth century – part of Kilsharvan House and a tulip tree in the garden dating back to the 1500s, when the house was the miller’s residence.  In the “Bleach Field” is an interesting stone “sentry box” to keep “an eye” on the bleaching linen.

It is variously recorded as:

Recording

The 144 inscriptions were recorded in 1980 by the author and updated in 1987, with assistance from Ruth McCullen.  Several fallen headstones were restored with help of members of the Mullen family and an annual cemetery devotions instituted with the

help of Fr. Finian O’Connor, PP, St Mary’s, Drogheda.  The continuance of this ceremony on an annual basis by V. Revd. J. C. O’Reilly, PP, and Revd. P. Tully, PP, and Canon James Nelson has led to some refurbishment of the graveyard.  A record of burials since March 1939, when such a scheme was started by Meath County Council, is in the care of the Boyle family, who live nearby in Beamore.  All of the memorials were legible as to name but other details were weathered beyond understanding in two cases.  Two others were broken, one of them severely, and the occupations

mentioned were Currier, Dairyman, Educational Commissioner, Merchant, Military and Surgeon.  There were three iron crosses with no name mentioned, and the oldest person noted was 105 years (Mary Flinn – d. 1922).  In addition, two large plots with

decorative railings were understood to belong to the McCann family, Beamond and the Sheridan family, New Haggard, but have no identification.  McCann built the Beamond Mills in 1880 and the original owner was John McCann.  It was afterwards owned by his sons John and later Joseph.  This was a famous and thriving producer of oatmeal for all of the 19th century, with special connections in the American market.

Burials without Monuments

The Register shows 127 burials since 1939. Names occurring which are not already marked by monuments are: Bann (P3), King (P2), Lynam (P2), Martin (P8), Reilly (P9), Sherlock (P6) from Bellewstown, Collins of Shallon (P5), Connor of Cushenstown (P5), Cooney of Duleek St. (P5), Drogheda, Coyle of Drogheda (P5), Dollard of Mary St. (P1), Murtagh of John St. (P5), O’Connell of Cooperhill (P8), Smith of Ongenstown (P8).

Earliest Dates

A small stone to John Cofee died March 1734 is the earliest inscription.  Harford (1741), in the church, is the second earliest inscription but has suffered some flaking in recent years.  What remains is noted.  However Dalton records that the monument is “to Elinor, daughter of Richard Alymer and wife of John Harford, Esq. of New Hazzard obiit 1741”.  He also mentions “that the aisle and choir of the church are divided by a fine semi-circular arch and distinctly traced the former measuring 50’x18’, the latter 33’x16’, the entrances are by circular arches, and the side windows are square, deeply recessed with mullions and tracery and having a bold projecting label moulding”.

Note on Inscriptions

Each inscription is numbered and those prefixed by (C) are inside or immediately affixed outside the church ruins; those prefixed (McD) are in the McDonnell plot.  Solitary names occurring are referred to the number of the family headstone on which they occur.  Plot numbers (1-12) is also given to correspond with the map

which is taken from the Register.

History and Rumour

There is a mistaken belief that the notorious highwayman Michael Collier, alias “Collier the Robber” was buried in this graveyard.  This is not the case.  Collier was buried by candlelight on the morning of 14th August, 1749 in the Chord cemetery in

Drogheda and his grave is unmarked to this day.  Moving to more factual history, the McDonnell plot contains the remains of John McDonnell, a famous surgeon in his day, 1796-1892, who on Friday, January 1, 1847 used ether as an anaesthetic for the first time ever in Ireland.  He amputated the arm of Mary Kane, an 18 year old girl from Co Meath, in a Dublin hospital, thus becoming the first surgeon outside the United States to use this method.
