This one was sent by someone who'd read the inscription off the actual stone:
"609 In Memory of Robert Kelly of Ballacubbon who departed this life August 13 1777 age 56 years.Robert Kelly Also to the Memory of Edward Kelly son of Robert and Mary Kelly of Douglas, who departed this life March 10, 1831 age 10 Months.
Also the remains of Catharine Kelly daughter of the afore Robert and Mary Kelly who departed this life June 24, 1837 aged 15 years.
Also the remains of John Kelly son of the said persons who departed this life August 7, 1837 age 8 years.
This flat stone, was covered over with grass and moss."
I wonder whether the John Kelly who died in 1837 should have been James.
