Latest headstone additions to Ireland Genealogy Projects Archives

I can't remember the last time a monthly update of the latest additions to Ireland Genealogy Projects Archives included batches of records from eight counties. Eight! That's some going for a project that is completely reliant on volunteers for all its imput.

The October additions accounted for eight burial grounds – one-a-piece per county, and all with text files if inscriptions linked to a respective photo of the headstone. Here are the basic details:
