The CURRAGH MILITARY CEMETERY

The following information about The Curragh cemetery was forwarded to me by Mick Dolan. While Mick was attached to The Curragh on a training course in 2003 he transcribed all the headstone and inscriptions it the cemetery. This process took him a little over a month to complete and has given us here on the site a vital piece of Curragh History. Not only did he compile a list of the military dead, but he has also compiled a list of all the family members, women and children. A read through the family list gives an insight into the times and the sadness that many families endured while stationed on The Curragh. The complete list will be useful to many people researching their family roots as it gives a good account of the Regiments stationed in The Curragh at the time.
