    1:56 does that headstone say Luke ‘died 31st Dec 1966’…?

    • @msb9997

      His father was Luke Kelly - died in 1966. Quite normal in Ireland to be buried in the same plot with other members of the family.

      His father name was also Luke Kelly.

      @francisboyle you're right, it's actually called Saint Paul's Section but it's classed as Glasnevin
