About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

Description

Surveyed as part of a Conservation Management Plan process in 2022 for Westmeath County Council. Funded through the Community Monument Fund.

Number of Memorials:

History of Exploration at Griffinstown Townland: In December 1938 human remains were discovered during works carried out by the Land Commission at Griffinstown, near Kinnegad, Co. Westmeath. The remains, apparently representing approximately four individuals, were in a poor state of preservation, and their disposition was not noted. The burials appear to have been unprotected and no associated artefacts were found. The find was located c. 18m from a fort but the site is not known. The SMR records two ringforts and four earthworks, a church and a castle in this townland. A site investigation did not take place. This site is also not far from this listed burial ground (Latitude, Longitude (decimal degrees): 53.470421, -7.140090)
