Thornhill is in the Parish of Morton, in the early years a village was called Morton as well. But Thornhill has always been in Parish of Morton.

Hello
I took a photo recently of Nethermill Memorial and noted the names of the fallen in WW2 if that is any use to you. I have just written a book called "World War Two - Annandale Connections" which has an appendix containing several photos and lists of names from WW2 memorials in the district.

Thanks for the offer. I presume you mean either the parish memorial http://warmemscot.s4.bizhat.com/viewtopic.php?p=2546#2546 or the church memorial http://warmemscot.s4.bizhat.com/viewtopic.php?t=1794, both of which we already have?

Have you seen the excellent exhibition currently on at Annan museum about the war memorials of the area? It is on until 14th November.

I'm about to take some books along to the exhibiton which I understand is very good.
All the best with your research.

Wasn't sure where to put this but I thought perhaps someone would like to see it. Collage entitled 'Remembrance in the Glenkens'.
