History
About this graveyard
Dromineer lies on Lough Derg, a few miles north-west of Nenagh. Its old graveyard holds some of the earliest stones in the archive — among them Mary Slattery, wife of Roger Dunn, who died in 1767, and Penelope Cleary, 1789 — together with many generations of the Slattery family of Knigh and the surrounding townlands. (Graveyard location is approximate and may be refined.)
