Mass graves are found in disused sewers at a former Catholic home for unmarried mothers in Ireland following decades of suspicion that hundreds of babies were buried in unmarked sites


Remains found at Bon Secours Mother and Baby Home in County Galway, Ireland
There could be as many as 800 dead, ranging from 35 weeks to three years old
The bodies may have been placed in an old sewer, which was disused in 1937
In the 1970s, local boys found a pile of bones in an underground chamber

In a statement today, the Mother and Baby Homes Commission said 'significant quantities of human remains have been discovered in at least 17 of the 20 underground chambers which were examined earlier this year'.

The inquiry was launched after local historian Catherine Corless said there was evidence of an unmarked graveyard at the home, where records showed almost 800 children died between 1925 and 1961.

However, there was a burial record for just one child.

I have never understood the catholics stance on contraception....whole lot of horror going through my head with this story LT.

I can only imagine the horrors theae kids went through before dying.

A truley dishonest and vile religion from the top down.
