Hi--I am very interested in your information but am hoping it is the Lower
Creggan Roman Catholic. church cemetery in Crossmaglen you are referring to. I
am interested in the following names: McElroy, Garland, McKee.
In fact, I would love to know more about your sister's trip to
Crossmaglen--would she be interested in writing it up and sharing it with
others on the list? I have often contemplated going there, but understood it
was a center of the "troubles" and thought I might wait till the new peace
agreement was confirmed. Looks like it may be never, however.
Best regards.
