Rathsarn was actually one of the first graveyards for which I transcribed the stones back in the 1996-98 period

Rathsarn (Rathsaran) Gravestone Transcriptions
Please note, the gravestone transcriptions were made in the 1996-98 time period, the photographs were not taken until 2008. In the ten year time frame some stones will have become illegible, therefore if you think your family are or might be buried in Rathsaran and cannot see a photograph with your name on it, please go to the transcriptions as I may have been able to read the stone at that time and have the information in that document.
