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.

Located on the banks of Lough Allen in the townland of Curraghs, this was the site of an ancient abbey supposedly occupied by a community of Black Friars who originated from Kilronan Abbey just six miles away. In medieval times the first Tarmon St. Patrick's Church was built thereon. That church was suppressed with the introduction of penal laws, but the surrounding graveyard has continued in use ever since. It is listed as ancient graveyard ref LE020-003 in the Irish national monument survey.
The current Tarmon St. Patrick's Church is less than a mile away in the townland of Corglass. It was built in 1904 replacing a smaller chapel built in 1835, which in turn had replaced the earlier "Bog Chapel" which had been built when the abbey church was suppressed.
Other catholic burial grounds in the parish of Inishmagrath include Drumkeeran St Brigid's, Kilbride St Brigid's and Aughaloughy Cemetery. The ruins of St. Hugh's graveyard are also to be found on the Lough Allen island of Inishmagrath.
