Hi Sue and G V. That Sheridan family crest is a yellow background with a green lion and 3 shamrocks one below the lion and one each at the two top corners of the crest. And you may find this of interest since you see the deer or stag above the crest on the tombstone.... The Latin on the family crest is " Cervus Lacessitus Leo" or translated " A Deer caught by Leo" . I am trying to read the text under the coat of arms on the tombstone but it is hard to read. If i can decipher it i will. It looks like something about " Unhurried Foot **** Next" is what I think I can translate from it. Cheers!
Thank you for posting this! Sir Lucas Dillon and Lady Jane Bathe Dillon are my great-grandparents! You made it possible for me to see a part of history of my ancestors and I thank you kindly for this!
Yes Sue brings us home to our brave ancestors who left to give us this new land, God bless ❣️ America.Tofay is our Independent day Independent day, my ancestors fought along with George Washington, The Mc Curdy family from Isle of Bute.
Beautiful cemetary Sue. By the way, my friend is back from her trip to Ireland. She said it was absolutely beautiful. She also went to Scotland as well. Something about Lockness. Her daughter,s cat,s name is Nessy! Lol. I guess after the Lockness monster.😂 Her son and daughter accompanied her on her trip! Loved the end with the tomb of the jealous man and woman. Spectacular.
The different carvings are amazing, especially for being put in stone. The tools we ave now, make it easy to do, but back in the 1800’s , they had to make all the tools by hand. Quite the artistry. Very clever. Ty for this tour. Tc and stay safe.
What a wonderful graveyard you found Sue! This is absolutely extraordinary never mind all that lichen! The headstones are incredible from the carving representations to what is inscribed on them! Simply fantastic! This one really pumped me up! I loved it! Thanks so much to both you and GV. Love & Hugs, Janet
It’s a really nicely kept old Churchyard Sue.Some fabulous old stones a real testament to the workmanship of the old stonemasons.These new ones that have very light engraving on will not last as long sadly as they are cut by machines now.The old Effigies have worn well considering they are exposed to the elements and have been for many years.I love finding the really old ones don’t you?.. thanks for taking us along .In it’s day this place must have looked spectacular ,then Henry the 8th came along.Such sacrilege…Love n Light 🥰
Thanks Sue for another great video and the cemetery was wonderful. I love some of the beautiful Effigies that are on the headstones and the Crypt. Thank you so much for sharing have a great day.
Aussie Pete here and once again thank you for the history of that tomb and the old ruins was so old it's amazing and the detail of the head stones... keep safe
Wow what a tour! So many beautiful old stones and carvings. That's quite a story about that jealous couple and the pins 😆. Thank you! We appreciate all you do for us.
GV was right, some of those stones need to be preserved. Especially the tomb! I can't believe it hasn't been saved already. It has a quirky little legend attached to it! Loved all the Celtic Crosses and 1700s stones you found. The last time I tried scrambling in between trees I ended up with an Orb Weaver spider and her web stuck in my hair, so I don't do that anymore. Lol. Thank you for this breathtaking walkabout Sue, you had me ooing and aahing along with you. Deb of Oz XXX
Ahh thanks so much Deb, yes I agree, this Tomb should have a glass around it or something to preserve it before it's too late, it was definitely a very beautiful place and I got so excited
Sue, such a beautiful place with the ruins and the old graves. I was really taken with the tomb with all the carvings and the angel of death. I wish I what it said on the bottom part of that stone. Thanks for another wonderful adventure. PS I don't care how you pronounce words. We can all understand you the same.
sorry I'm late watching this , it's been an extremely busy weekend here this was a fascinating video , the tombstones with that Angel of death and the Sheridan crest was remarkable never seen anything like them ❤another wonderful video Sue
What a find on these headstones. So much history. Thank you for sharing! By the way, could you imagine someone walking by while you were on the ground looking at the headstone, 😮😂
I grew up Catholic. I still follow most of the teachings, but I was wondering if you believe that Mary Magdalene was a disciple. And please other people don’t bash me because I asked that question.
Hi, no one will bash you here I promise that, I too was raised as a Catholic and even though I don't go to mass, I still visit churches to pray or light a candle, in my own time. Also for their beauty and history. As far as Mary Magdalene, I can only say what I was thought, which was she was a follower of Jesus, a disciple, she witnessed his death and so many times on older headstones she depicted with the virgin Mary beneath our Lord. So yes I believe ❤️
Hi Sue 😊 thank you for filming these beautiful videos. I’m amazed at how much detail these stones still have after so many years!!! Here in England, when we see IHS on a stone it means ‘The Holy Spirit’ generally refers to a Protestant grave. Could it mean the same over there? Anyway, thank you again for sharing these with us xx
Lucas Dillon and Lady Jane Bathe are my 11th great grandparents. I know, how do I know....there is DNA that connects me back to Savage from 1607. I am 43% Irish. The Dillon side is not proven, so with that. The Plunkett grave stone you showed could be a relative of mine in some way. Lucas and Jane had a daughter Anne, who married Richard Plunkett. :) It's very cool to see on a RUclips video. You now have a new subscriber. Thank you!! I have to tell you that his descendants in America, some were known as fortune tellers, and so on. I, however, did not receive any of these traits! 🤣What a beautiful place, I can't wait to visit!
The ruins are in pretty good condition, considering their age. The same for the monuments in the graveyard. Very interesting story about the pins and the tomb. It looks like someone is trying to keep the grounds in somewhat good condition. Thank you very much Sue, and GV, for a very fine walking tour. This was a great video. Are you planning on visiting a cemetery or graveyard for Halloween 🎃? Take care. 😊
Amazing content Sue . The high crosses you refer to are known as the Celtic Crosses and of course The Celts from the North Western Germanic Tribes they invaded Wales , Scotland and Ireland . there were more celts in Ireland and to this day there are 120 million of Celtic descent in North South America , Australasi , Africa and Europe , The largest single group from Ireland , followed by Scotland, Wales, and Cornwall . Hence the reason you see more of the Celtic crosses in Ireland They were In England also but not so many . They inhabited Britain known as Pritani around the Iron age and after the Bronze Age who were known as the Beaker People however they did not last long as the Celtic People . Then came the Romans and we all of us know that the Greatest CELTIC WARRIORS was QUEEN BOUDICA Hope this has been of some use to you two intrepid Brave Journeyman . Found your Program last week and My sister and I Visiting my fathers and other Relatives graves In Shropshire England . Buried mainly in the new part from the 1800 hundreds onwards . although there are older Tombs they are the other side many pre Victorian It is a huge Cemetery and magnificently kept especially the more modern graves . However when my sister and I used to meet up we would bring shears . cleaning material to clean some graves up so you could see the writing and cut down Ivy and weeds etc we used to do three of four graves . depending on the amount of work . Noone ever saw us do it but it seemed to me so sad that graves were left to rot and overgrow . Keep up the Good work both love it , all you do .
Thank you, I've been to so many graveyards where we have hundreds of celtic crosses, especially from the early 1900s, unfortunately they are not as popular now. I've found the largest highcross to the smallest high cross in Ireland too
You are so lucky to be able to visit these ruins, jealous from the U.S. 😊 What are the white spots all over the ruins when you first walk in? Thank you for sharing these stores, ❤❤❤
I know, there's so many wives tales here, (don't cross your legs when pregnant as the cord will wrap around the babies neck) so many but that one was told to me personally, I just laughed lol
An old wives tale I heard is, if you put a knife under the birthing bed, it will cut the pain in half. Wishful thinking from a time before real pain meds. Awsome video.
Hey Sue and GV wow my mind is blown by the age of these graves 1700s then you mentioned about this 1592 tomb..I’m in Australia we were discovered by the English in 1788. Love your channel so much , just a quick question what do the letters at the very top of some of the headstones mean? ❤ thanks so much ❤️🌳🪦🌳
This is so amazing. BTW, as you know, my last name is rare in Ireland, but we definitely came out of Dublin. At one time, I even had my great grandfather's address from Dublin. You have a friend with my sir name and I watched the Documentary on the men who did the hunger strike in the English prison, he is also a Walker I wonder if we are related I also found a relative in Dublin a Sister Mary Walker but I don't have contact with her, she came to New York just to meet me in the 90's.
@@SerenitySueGraveyards wow, we could be related! See if she knows if he was related to Mayor James J Walker of New York City from 1926-1932. That's how we connected Sister Walker and myself. My great grandfather was also James Walker from Dublin, the IRB got him to New York on a ship, he was wanted by the English government.
This is my Town - simon de rochford is an ancestor of my father's. I used to imagine this statue coming alive and following me home while out with my family when i was little girl..it really freaked me out 😂 The rowan trees you see there are ancient- The templars come hospitellars planted them!
@@SerenitySueGraveyards I know pretty cool, Trim has many layers to it that are amazing- We have talbot house which belonged to matt talbot and if I'm current he is linked to orleon and Joan of Arc- have to do more research .
Thanks
Thanks a million Helen, really appreciate it
The little statue on the wall with angel facing you- The baby Jesus is on top of that! The one behind the cage is our lady Mary❤

Couldn't agree more! I'm always amazed at the detail by hand, plus they last so well, I've seen newer graves that are hard to read in a shorter time
i wish that some of he gravestones could be preserved because they are absolutely precious works of art!
Me too, sometimes I feel like I'm in a museum full of art. These definitely should be preserved
This is a mystery; Can't wait to see this.
Will love this mystery.
Thanks Sally
The artwork on those monuments is unbelievable. Thank you both for sharing!
You're very welcome 🙏
That tree trunk with flowers in is a great idea
Yes a great idea
Wow, the ruins are beautiful and you found some amazing old tombstone.

Thank you Sue very interesting tour it's a shame how that lichen overtakes the gravestones, some works of art on some of those stones too. 💜💜
Thanks Jules, yes unfortunately this happens a lot here, such beautiful craftsmanship

Thanks so much Julia ❤️
I think that is the oldest tomb you have shown us. Amazing that much carving is still visible!
It's very old for sure but I've found older in Wales, effigies in a church, beautiful
Very interesting graveyard
It sure is Becki, absolutely amazing
In the time it took for those pins to rust, their worts would have gone away by themselves, lol
Haha true, or gone and come back again lol
Most irelands grandest art is in it's cemeteries 💚💚💚🍀🍀🍀
I completely agree
I have got to say I love your accent thank you for a great video watching from Winnipeg Manitoba Canada
Hello, we've got a good few people here from Canada, it's just great ❤️
Enjoyed the tour!
Thanks so much ❤️
What a find on these headstones. So much history. Thank you for sharing! By the way, could you imagine someone walking by while you were on the ground looking at the headstone, 😮😂
There were people passing by as its a beautiful walk along the graveyard to Trim Castle, I think I was so excited at that point I didn't care 😄
Amazing place! The carvings were awesome. Almost looked like they were done by a machine. Sad the tomb was so weather worn😞
Yes, I think it should be behind glass to preserve it, soon it will be all gone
Amazing graveyard
Great video I hope you and gv don't get warts😊
I hope so too 😅 it was a thought after I touched the tomb 😅😅

Thank you. A nice walk and show. Are the tall bushes trimmed to look so nice a neat.
Was thinking the same, good too see someone still cares about such an ancient cemetery.

Amazing content Sue . The high crosses you refer to are known as the Celtic Crosses and of course The Celts from the North Western Germanic Tribes they invaded Wales , Scotland and Ireland . there were more celts in Ireland and to this day there are 120 million of Celtic descent in North South America , Australasi , Africa and Europe , The largest single group from Ireland , followed by Scotland, Wales, and Cornwall .
Hence the reason you see more of the Celtic crosses in Ireland They were In England also but not so many .
They inhabited Britain known as Pritani around the Iron age and after the Bronze Age who were known as the Beaker People however they did not last long as the Celtic People .
Then came the Romans and we all of us know that the Greatest CELTIC WARRIORS was QUEEN BOUDICA
Hope this has been of some use to you two intrepid Brave Journeyman .
Found your Program last week and My sister and I Visiting my fathers and other Relatives graves In Shropshire England . Buried mainly in the new part from the 1800 hundreds onwards . although there are older Tombs they are the other side many pre Victorian It is a huge Cemetery and magnificently kept especially the more modern graves .
However when my sister and I used to meet up we would bring shears . cleaning material to clean some graves up so you could see the writing and cut down Ivy and weeds etc we used to do three of four graves . depending on the amount of work .
Noone ever saw us do it but it seemed to me so sad that graves were left to rot and overgrow .
Keep up the Good work both love it , all you do .
Thank you, I've been to so many graveyards where we have hundreds of celtic crosses, especially from the early 1900s, unfortunately they are not as popular now. I've found the largest highcross to the smallest high cross in Ireland too
