and the good of her neighbour; her death was like her life most holy.” She was buried under the convent chapel. In 1876, the Admiral’s Cove convent burned down and the five Sisters moved to the centre of the parish at Renews. In 1940, the local priest decided to determine the exact location of her grave. When found, silver rings and rosary crucifixes from the corpses were removed, and given to the Presentation archives in St. John's. When a post office was established in Admiral’s Cove in 1960, the town needed a new name to distinguish itself from similarly named communities; Admiral’s Cove was renamed Port Kirwan. The Town of Port Kirwan Council designated the Reverend Mother’s grave a Municipal Heritage Site on 27 February 2007.
