Therefore it makes sense to list all churches and 'check them off' as the memorials are 'collected' or proven not to exist. If I know a closed church has no memorials, I have not bothered to list it. This is my first attempt at listing the churches of Dumfries and Galloway. If anyone has any additions or suggestions, please let me know. I will keep this updated as I go along but others are welcome to join the hunt of course. Just let me know what has been checked and I will update. Collected = memorials identified and photos Part Collected = some photographed but at least one still to collect None = confirmed that there are no memorials inside the church blank = yet to be checked Churchs in Dumfries and Galloway (160) - Updated 11th September 2009 Annan Old Collected Annan St Andrew's Collected Annan St Columba RC Annan St John's Episcopal Collected Annan United Reform Church Applegarth Collected Auchencairn Collected Balmaclellan Collected Balmaghie Collected Bargrennan Collected Beeswing former church Collected Boreland (Hutton and Corrie) Borgue None Brydekirk Collected Buittle part Collected Caerlaverock Collected Canonbie United Carsphairn Collected Castle Douglas Collected Castle Douglas New Life Church Centre Castle Douglas St Andrew's part Collected Castle Douglas St John RC Castle Douglas St Ninian's Episcopal Collected Challoch Episcopal Collected Closeburn Collected Colvend none Corsock none Crossmichael Collected Cummertrees Dalbeattie Collected Dalbeattie Park Church (Baptist) none Dalbeattie Christ Church Episcopal Collected Dalbeattie St Peter's Catholic none Dalton Collected Dornock Collected Dumfries Baptist Church Dumfries Bethany None Dumfries Christian Science Dumfries Congregational Church none Dumfries Free Church of Scotland Dumfries Greyfriars part Collected Dumfries Latter Day Saints Dumfries Lighthouse Centre Dumfries Lincluden Dumfries Lochside Dumfries Maxwelltown West Collected Dumfries River of Life Church Dumfries Salvation Army none Dumfries St Andrew's Catholic none Dumfries St George's Collected Dumfries St John's Episcopal Collected Dumfries St Mary's Collected Dumfries St Michael's Collected Dumfries St Teresa's Catholic Dumfries Troqueer Collected Dundrennan Rerrick none Dunscore part Collected Durisdeer Collected Eaglesfield Eastriggs Baxter Hall none Eastriggs St John's Episcopal Ecclefechan Hoddam Ervie Kirkcolm Eskdalemuir Ewes Gatehouse of Fleet Anwoth and Girthon Collected Gatehouse of Fleet church of resurrection RC Gatehouse of Fleet St Mary's Episcopal none Glasserton Glencairn Collected Gretna All Saints Episcopal Collected Gretna Catholic Closed Gretna Old Collected Gretna St Andrew's Hightae Collected Holywood Collected Inch Collected Irongray none Isle of Whithorn Collected Johnstonebridge none Keir Kelloholm St Mark's Hall Kelton Collected Kettleholm St Mungo's Collected Kirkconnel Kirkconnel St Connel RC Kirkcowan Kirkcudbright Collected Kirkcudbright Greyfriars Episcopal Collected Kirkcudbright St Andrews RC, 01556 610358 Kirkgunzean Collected Kirkinner Collected Kirkmabreck Collected Kirkmaiden (Drummore) Collected Kirkmaiden (Kirk Covenant) none Kirkmichael Collected Kirkpatrick Durham Kirkpatrick Fleming Kirkpatrick Juxta Kirkton Kirkmahoe Collected Kirtle-Eaglesfield Collected Langholm Collected Langholm St Francis of Assisi RC Leswalt Lochmaben Collected Lochrutton Lockerbie All Saints Episcopal Lockerbie Dryfesdale part Collected Lockerbie Holy Trinity Catholic Maxwellton Chapel (nr Dunscore) Collected Middlebie Collected Mochrum Moffat St Andrew's Moffat St John's Episcopal Moffat St Luke's Catholic Moniaive Collected Monigaff Collected Mouswald Collected New Abbey Collected New Abbey St Mary RC New Galloway Kells Collected New Galloway St Margaret's Episcopal Collected New Luce None Newton Stewart Penninghame Collected Newton Stewart St Ninian's Catholic Old Luce None Parton Collected Penpont Collected Portpatrick Portpatrick St Ninian's Episcopal Ruthwell Collected Sanquhar St Bride's Collected Sanquhar St Ninian's Collected Sorbie (ask for roll of honour) Southwick and Kirkbean Collected St John's Town of Dalry none Stonykirk Stranraer Baptist Stranraer High Kirk Stranraer International Christian Stranraer St John's Episcopal Stranraer St Joseph's Catholic Stranraer St Ninian's Stranraer Town Kirk Tarff Collected Terregles Thornhill Morton Collected Tinwald Collected Torthorwald Collected Tundergarth Twynholm Collected Tynron Urr Collected Wamphray Collected Waterbeck Collected Westerkirk Whithorn St Martin and St Ninian Catholic Whithorn St Ninian's Priory Wigtown Collected Wigtown Sacred Heart Catholic Last edited by spoons on Fri Sep 11, 2009 2:11 pm; edited 28 times in total Back to top spoons Joined: 09 Jan 2007 Posts: 2647 Location: St John's Town of Dalry Posted: Thu Jul 26, 2007 10:39 pm    Post subject: I have decided that we also need a list of Village and Town Halls. I guess it will take a long time to check them all if I ever do, but a good 50% of them turn out to have unlisted memorials so it is worth the effort. Most of these are used for elections so I am thinking of contacting the Electoral Registration part of the council to see if they can let me have a list of halls and key-holders. And I will keep this list updated, again, just so anyone else knows what buildings have been checked.

I complied a couple for Glasgow and Lanarkshire and that was enough for me. It's worth doing though to then start ticking them off. If your on a roll you might want to consider sports clubs as well. There may me meorials such as sheilds or cups still being played for each year.
