C.W.C cut directly into the stone. Nobody now knows exactly where it stands. The stone has not been formally located or recorded in situ, which means it exists in a curious state, acknowledged but unconfirmed, a piece of the early seventeenth century that may be visible to any visitor who looks carefully enough, or may have long since sunk into the earth.

What is known comes from folklore gathered by pupils at Brosna School, preserved in the Schools' Collection, a 1930s nationwide project in which Irish schoolchildren recorded local knowledge, stories, and traditions from older community members. The children noted that Brosna graveyard is among the oldest in the area, and that its reach extended well beyond the immediate parish. People were brought here for burial from outlying districts in both Limerick and Cork, suggesting it once served as a significant regional burial ground, drawing families across county boundaries at a time when such boundaries carried less administrative weight than they do today. The gravestone marked T.C.W.C and dated 1624 was recorded as one of the graveyard's notable features, though the identities behind those initials have not been established.

The graveyard itself is a working historical site, and the headstone, if it can be found, predates most of what survives in Irish rural burial grounds. A date of 1624 places it in the early decades of a period when cut-stone grave markers with inscribed text were still relatively uncommon outside urban or ecclesiastical contexts. Anyone visiting might scan the older, more worn stones carefully, particularly those where lettering has been cut rather than incised in later styles, though there is no guarantee the stone remains upright or legible.
