Mr. Cantwell transcribed stones that had pre 1880 years on them, plus any other stones standing beside these pre 1880 stones with the same surname and a later year. He transcribed stones that were legible and so for any graveyard there may be more stones that have not been transcribed. Memorials in churches were also transcribed and those names are included in these indices

from Mr. Cantwells 'Memorials of the Dead, Co. Wexford' "This old-graveyard, still in use, is situated on the north side of Tara Hill, approx 4 miles north of Gorey, not to be confused with Kilcavan near Wellington Bridge in the southern part of the county
There are a large number of decorated headstones, of the Byrne School, in the graveyard. For a general discussion, see the Journal of the Royal Society of Antiqaries of Ireland, vol. LXXV, ii, pps 79 & 81 (1945). The Murray & Mernagh headstones are illustrated."
