About these numbers These percentages indicate the number of Find a Grave memorials that have a grave photo or GPS coordinates. We don't know the total number of burials in a cemetery, so we cannot calculate a percentage of those with memorials, photos or GPS coordinates.

The cemetery is located in the townland of Bishopsquarter, on the N67 road roughly a mile northwest of the town of Ballyvaughan. The ruined church is said to have been constructed in phases between the 11th and 14th centuries, the ruin was known as both St. Colman's Abbey and Drumcreehy Church but is best known as Bishop's Quarters Cemetery for the townland in which it is found. Written accounts state that it was in ruin by at least the 1830s but the site has been used continuously for burials right up to the present day.
