Burials at Glenavy Parish Church
There are records for the Parish Church recording burials from the early 1700’s.
The following reference can also be found in relation to the graveyard:
A.D. 1815 — The Churchyard of Glenavy being too small to accommodate parish application was made to the Marquis of Hertford for ground to enlarge it, who accordingly granted in Irish Road, which as the old fences were not regular, was added on each side the largest portion being on the north. The old ditch was levelled and a new ditch with a double row of quicks raised into its place.
Oct 1815 — 570 different kinds of trees and shrubs were planted in the border around this churchyard.
The following appeared in the Lisburn Standard, Saturday August 8th 1885

Return to TopThe following is an extract from Glenavy Past and Present by Charles Watson 1892:
The Select Vestry have taken great interest in the graveyard, and "God’s acre" in Glenavy Churchyard, with its asphalt walks and well-kept grounds, inspires the parishioners to feel
"This is the field and acre of our God,
This is the place where human harvests grow."
Gravestone Inscriptions
I have endeavoured to transcribe all the headstones in the graveyard. Some of the headstones have fallen and are presently unreadable. Due to age and weathering some of the inscriptions are incomplete. The following headstone inscriptions were recorded prior to April 2008. This section will be updated periodically.

The map of the graveyard has been hand-drawn and is not to scale. The areas are marked and referred to in this map in order to cross reference the location of the headstones and has not been taken from any existing church records/graveyard map. This map is independent of any church records.
There are hundreds of burials over the years in this graveyard and they are unmarked - without headstone or acknowledgement.
Notes relating to the older burials in the graveyard will be added and there is a section for information relating to burials where there appear to be no headstone. Extracts from local newspapers have been with the consent of the Belfast News Letter, Ulster Star, Belfast Telegraph and Irish News.
Apologies for any errors or omissions in the following text. Please do contact The Digger if you are aware of any and I will amend them accordingly. The headstones and memorials have been given numbers for ease of reference.
