In the 1840s a children's burial ground was recorded in the W end of Ballyfinnane townland (OSNB, Molahiffe, no. 1, 30). Its precise location is not known. According to local information, a quernstone (KE039-146----), now in Knockaneacoolteen townland, is likely to have come from this burial ground.
