It is with regret I announce that Murray Patrick Lynn (1950-2013), the creator, author and administrator of KiwiCelts, passed away 14 Nov 2013

His family has announced that "KiwiCelts will remain online in it's present form. Decisions about it's future development and maintenance will be made in due course"

In dedication to Murray and in honor of all his incredible hard work over the years I submit his site in an abridged form. It includes Cemeteries, Irish maps, Kiwiwiki, Research Links and his Family History from as far back as 1200 and ranges around the world, from Ireland, Scotland, England and Germany to the Argentine, the USA, Australia and New Zealand
You will find it an invaluable site in your genealogy research

Unbelievably, Murray's Genealogy Place Map Index, geneaMap Database, is not only a cemetery database but a list of all places:
* ART GALLERIES
* CEMETERIES
* CHURCHES
* LIGHTHOUSES
* MARAES
* MEMORIALS
* MUSEUMS
* ORPHANGES
* RAILWAYS
* SCHOOLS
* SHIPWRECKS
* TEMPLES
* UNDERTAKERS
* URUPA
* WAR MEMORIALS

A HUGE site so be patient as it can take a while to load

It is initially sorted at his site by:
Country-Province-District and Name, but you can re-sort it when in there by clicking on the column headings.
Clicking on the Place Name takes you to the geneaMap to see the map location and full details - address, related websites, photos etc

Was unsure the best way to present the data Murray has but finally decided to list it here in alphabetical 'Name of Place' order.
Every name is a searchable link. Visit his site to find all other relevant info
