."On 10 July 2003 I photographed all the headstones in this graveyard and those which could not be captured on the camera were transcribed on paper. The

inscriptions were taken down as carefully as possible and where the stone is badly worn and could barely be read it was traced with a finger and noted as

accurately as possible. I counted 72 graves in all and hopefully have captured them all in no particular order.  The manual inscriptions are below."

Daniel O'Dogharty Esq

Who departed this lfe 4 Feb 1715

Memonto Mori

(Death's head and crossed bones)

 

Notes:

Over this inscription is a shield and crest, both nearly illegible. The crest is probably a hand and dagger; on shield there is a stag trippant and in base 3 mullets.

This Daniel O'Dougharty was a Major in King James II's army, and after the Battle of the Boyne, settled down at Keenagh.

His property was squandered by his descendants who, some fifty years ago, were in receipt of 10 pounds per an. from Lord Donegall

on the strength of two documents proving their direct lineal descent from the 'Great O'Dogherty.' One of these was carried off to America by the man to whom it was mortgaged;

and the other, being in the pocket of an overcoat worn in a boat on a very stormy day, was left there while the coat was being dried,

and was found to be utterly destroyed. Captain Hart endeavoured to regain this pension for Cahir O'Doherty in vain. The family are now poor fishermen living not far from Malin Head
