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.

Rushen Abbey, located in Ballasalla, was founded in 1134 by Olaf Godredson (known in history as "Olaf the Black"). It was first given to monks from Furness Abbey, who were of the Savignac order, but in 1147 it became part of the Cistercian order. The abbey church, which was dedicated to St. Mary, was completed in 1257. The abbey was dissolved in 1540 and has fallen into ruins, though the church tower, built in the fourteenth century, still stands.
