Abstract
- The article examines a paupers' graveyard in Kilkenny, Ireland. Particular focus is given to how the graveyard holds nearly a thousand victims of the Great Famine in Ireland. Additional topics discussed include how more than 500 children were buried in the graveyard, how the dead in the graveyard are unidentified and how it is likely that the bodies in the graveyard were those living at the Kilkenny Union Workhouse.
