Kerry,
There are 2 Church of Ireland churches in Donagheady parish. Donagheady itself and Dunnalong. It looks as though this burial was conducted by the Minister from Dunnalong. Unless the register happens to say where the burial took place (some were meticulous about recording that, most weren’t), it could be anywhere in the parish.
