Dublin, Ireland

Glasnevin Cemetery


     On our last day in Ireland, we spent the day in the cemetery.  Not just any cemetery, but the Glasnevin Cemetery.  (Check it out https://www.glasnevintrust.ie/)  We came here to find my husband's great grandfather, but we found so much more.  Not only do they have a chapel, a museum, a gift store, a coffee shop and a full-time genealogist on staff, the cemetery boasts, according to a tour guide, more people in the cemetery than LIVING in Dublin.  WOW!  How can that be?

This sign shocked me!

We found his grave!
