Tower of Sark graveyard is on the site of

the old Morton parish church, but there

is no sign of the church building now.

There are many very old gravestones

with armorial bearings here, many

Armstrongs in particular.

A transcript of the pre 1855 gravestones

was recorded by Gilchrist and Shannon

in the 1960s, and now is published by

the Dumfries and Galloway Family

History Society. Many of the stones ap-

pear to have been stacked on top of

each other, so many are illegible now,

however there are some photographed

here which were not recorded by

Gilchrist and Shannon. My transcripts

are taken from the photos so are not

guaranteed accurate!
