Section 5 is in the center.

That map above is E-W orientation, same thing here from google maps with normal orientation:

Section 5 is again in the middle, just south of the big circle and Our Lady of Peace mausoleum.

Detail for Section 5:

446 and 447 are on page 2, in center of this closeup:

Also, St Mary's sent me a map of their cemetery:

St Monica's (Katherine Regan O'Grady) is on far left; Section M is lower right (Uncle Frank)

Related: Edward McCallion is in St Marys too.

St Jude section ... not on the map? Same St Marys?

original info:

Research for the next possible graves visit:

Katherine Regan O'Grady is buried at Saint Mary's Cemetery in Yonkers:

https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/107798388/katherine-o'grady

So, looks like the plot info is: "St Monica's P 96 G 1"

Her daughter (our Aunt) Katherine and husband Stephen are buried here too.

No map online for St Mary's:

Frank is also in St Marys:

https://www.findagrave.com/memorial/106886425/francis-o'grady

Plot is: Section M P 10 G 8

Ballinlough

There's a graveyard in Ballinlough as well. Irishnative.com has pics of it here:

http://irishnative.com/cemeteries-2/ballinlough/

We know that some Dempseys of Cloonreliagh are buried in Granlahan, but there's a few of interest in Ballinlough.

Also, note that on Mary Ellen's (Nelly's) Ellis Island entry, she lists her mother as living in "Derreentighe, Ballenlough" ... perhaps the family made the trek to Ballinlough on Sundays, and not Granlahan?

Giving your origin place in 1800/1900s was fairly hit&miss, but mentioning Ballinlough on entry must mean something ...

See map:

Cloonreliagh is the 'triangle road' on lower right, Granlahan on lower left, Ballinlough center top. 

Ballinlough and Granlahan look about equal distance from Cloonreliagh. So why pick one over the other?

Here's Ellen Grady of Keyfield buried in Ballinlough:

The stone is hard to read. Great-grandfather Thomas's older brother James lived in Keyfield. His son John (born 1880) marries an Ellen, although the stone may be too old for that.

There's a lot of Waldrons married in to the Gradys/Dempseys.

Here's a Martin Waldron of Keyfield:

This is a more recent stone.

The Ballinlough graveyard is north of town, close to Lough O'Flynn:

The view to the lake looks nice!
