This is the second title in a new series of Irish cemetery indexes which provide transcriptions of the tombstone inscriptions associated with those cemeteries. This book indexes the Colaghty Church of Ireland Cemetery and the nearby Tirwinny Methodist Cemetery in Drumkeeran Parish in the northern part of County Fermanagh in Northern Ireland. It includes a brief history of the churches and cemeteries, colour maps showing their location in the county and parish, along with photographs of the churches and cemetery, and a generic set of pictures showing the different types of tombstones one will encounter in Irish cemeteries. The site maps of the cemeteries are divided into sections and rows. The tombstones have been recorded according to their in situ context and are linked to the site maps, making it very easy to find each grave when visiting the cemetery. Every name on the tombstones has been recorded in the comprehensive alphabetical index that gives their location. Adhering to exacting historical and genealogical methodology, every effort has been employed to verify questionable and obscured information on tombstones using parish records and public documents.
