| This beautiful headstone is a fine example of the modern letter cutter's art. It was designed and worked by Ken Thompson, an internationally respected sculptor and stone carver, and father of the 12-year-old Katy whose resting place it marks in Churchtown Graveyard, Co Cork.

Below is a list of the files uploaded to Ireland Genealogy Projects Archives last month. As you can see, they were all packages of headstones – thanks to Ireland having enjoyed a fairly decent summer, I suppose.
As always, the photos and inscriptions were donated to IGPA by volunteers in the hope that they will help researchers learn more about their ancestors and their family's story.
