    Apparently this is the tomb of Feidlim Ua Conchobair (a.k.a. Fedhlim O'Connor) and is in the Dominican Priory in Roscommon which he founded in 1253.

    OSI 25" The NIAH doesn't have an article on the Abbey itself, only the 19th Century graveyard in the grounds. There is also an article from The Journal of the Kilkenny and South-East of Ireland Archaeological Society from 1866 called "Some Remarks on O'Connor's Tomb at Roscommon" which goes into the history of the different parts of the tomb.

    Roscommon Messenger 22 June 1907

    Madame Louise Grafton and her clever Dramatic and Comedy Company have provided excellent entertainment for well filled houses in the old Church during the past week. "Under Two Flags," "Not Guilty", "The Shadows of a Great City", "The Lady of Lyons", and "The Unknown", were amongst the pieces staged. The performances as a whole were successful, and the staging and general arrangements astonishingly complete. Madame Grafton goes to Castlerea next week where she is sure of a warm welcome.
