   The Ulster Pedigree book advises this profile has a gravestone transcription in one of the books 'Gravestone Inscriptions Volumes 1-12 by Clarke, R. S. J. (Richard Samuel Jessop)

   The first 5 books are in the FamilySearch library but his transcription is not listed in those 5, so it must be in volumes 6 through 12.

   In the Ulster Pedigree book it lists its sources in abbreviated form.
