The earliest marked burials are 1845. There are many unmarked graves.

Father Remigius Petiot of Galena offered the first Mass at Irish Grove in 1841, at the home of Michael Walsh. Later the parish was attended by priests from New Dublin and Freeport. There are apparently no burial records from this time period.

Beginning in 1872, it was transferred to St. Mary Church in Pecatonica. Therefore, burial records from 1872 - 1924 might be found at St. Mary Church in Pecatonica. Records from 1925 on may be available at St. Mary Church in Durand.
