This file includes a document relating to St. Joseph’s Catholic Cemetery in Cork. In the late 1820s, Fr. Theobald Mathew OSFC expressed his discontent that all the graveyards in the city remained under Protestant supervision. Permission had to be obtained by priests to officiate at Catholic burials. This permission was frequently only grudgingly given and having personally witnessed an attempt by the Protestant Dean of Cork to prevent the Catholic Dean from officiating in St. Finbarr’s Churchyard, Fr. Mathew moved to acquire a burial ground for Catholics. As a result of a well-supported subscription, parts of the Botanic gardens were leased and opened in February 1830 and were designated as St. Joseph’s Cemetery.
