Free Irish graveyard books from Kabristan Archives

Kabristan Archives, the small specialist publisher of books relating to Irish and Indian graveyards and cemeteries, is having a summer time giveaway. And some!

The following books are available free of charge; you pay only for the postage:

  • Old Irish Graveyards: County Leitrim Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4
  • Old Irish Graveyards: County Monaghan Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4
  • Old Irish Graveyards: County Sligo Part 1, Part 2, Part 3, Part 4, Part 5
  • Donegal Graveyards Part I, Part II, Part III, Part Iv, Part V, Part VI, Part VII
  • Tyrone Graveyards Part I, Part II, Part III, Part IV, Part V.
  • Kells' Burial Grounds County Meath
  • Strabane Cemeteries, County Tyrone
  • Sligo Cemetery Old Section
  • Early Burials in County Monaghan

Eileen Hewson, the founder of Kabristan Archives and well-known for her Irish graveyard inscriptions, told Irish Genealogy News that Kabristan Archives is going fully digital and the giveaway will help clear stock.

You can see details of the contents of each book on the Kabristan Publications' Bookshop page. And you can contact Eileen by email to sales@kabristan.org.uk.to place an order or to enquire about postage.

Kabristan Archives is based in the UK. As an example of postage costs, Eileen says the Old Irish Graveyards County Leitrim collection of four books would cost about £7/€9 to post to an address in Ireland. Rates within the UK would be cheaper. Rates further afield more.

The giveaway will end on 31 August.
