The follow index, is a list of Irish surnames on gravestones found in three of the above Calvary Cemeteries.  You can see the pictures by checking out the surname first and then below the index, click on the link where the index number is found.

If there are two or more entries for the same name for the same picture, that is because they came from different places in Ireland.

Special thanks to Rosemary Mulcahy and Terry Dewhurst for not only taking most of these pictures and indexing them but for contributing them to the Queens Website.  Thanks also to those that sent their family pictures.
