[4qd-bannvalley] Bann Valley churches



Beryl,

You are right.  1st Garvagh was on the Kilrea Road and has been
unfortunately demolished.  My father, mother and grandfather are buried in
the still extant graveyard of 2nd Garvagh but my grandmother, who fell out
with the minister there is buried at 2nd Garvagh.  Typical Presbyterians!

There are of course lots of records on the website:
http://www.4qd.org/bann/church/contents.html

There is also a pic taken by Barbara Braswell of 2nd Garvagh somewhere but I
cannot find it!

Regards,

Boyd
