Lecture Reminder.

Dr. Eileen Murphy, Senior Lecturer in Osteoarchaeology at Queen's University, Belfast, will be the guest speaker at a meeting of the society on Wednesday night next, April 22nd at 8 pm.

Dr. Eileen Murphy. QUB.

The title of her illustrated lecture is

'Children's Burial Grounds In Ireland (Cillini)'.

This is a fascinating lecture about the burial of unbaptised children, and others, in unconsecrated ground, covering a period possibly starting in the Early Christian era but certainly reaching back to Medieval times.

All are Welcome.
