RootsIreland adds 50,000 graveyard inscriptions

RootsIreland.ie has uploaded an additional 50,000 gravestone transcriptions from counties Tyrone and Fermanagh to its searchable database.

The company's announcement says that a total of nearly 270 cemeteries have now been surveyed, accounting for nearly all burial places in the two counties, and they include graveyards consecrated by religious groups as well as those in the care of the municipal authorities.

I've looked round the site trying to find a list of the graveyards concerned but couldn't find one.
