There are more children buried at mass graves at mother and baby homes nationwide, Catherine Corless claimed last night.
The historian’s meticulous research led to the discovery of the remains of up to 800 children at a septic tank at a home that was run by the Bon Secours nuns in Tuam, Co Galway.
She said: “I think there are many mass graves across Ireland at mother and baby homes.
“But I suppose Tuam felt a little bit worse, because it was in a sewage area.”
She added: “I’ve always said even one child buried unknown is wrong, very wrong.”
