Family Gravestone Discovered

First off the internet has been out for three days here. Which was very frustrating  because I wanted to share that last Thursday after stumbling around an old grave yard for two hours that I found the grave site which has the remains of my great great grandparents and two of my great great uncles. The cemetary is very old... the last people to be buried there were in the 1890's. I can read the names and dates at the botttom of the marker but the top is so cover with lichen you cant make out anything. A stone mason from the area is coming out tomorrow to work on removing some of the lichen. Hopefully this will enable us to read all of the information. I can't tell you what a thrill this is. Tomorrow I'll be heading on up to Dublin and then County Antrim.
