AN ANTHOLOGY OF ARTICLES AND EXTRACTS ON THE HISTORY AND
PEOPLE OF BUITTLE PARISH. |
Welcome to my BUITTLE PARISH Home Page. I am a native of the area and have spent a few years collecting information and illustrations on many aspects of its history and people. These pages are intended to help me share this information with others interested in the area and its history.
Buittle Parish is in the South West of Scotland, on the north coast of the Solway Firth. Click

Kirkyards Illustrated Those of you who previously visited this website
will notice that it is now no longer possible to view the parish gravestones
through these pages. I have launched a new genealogy/history venture at www.kirkyards.com
and I now offer for sale a CD containing the inscriptions from every gravestone
in both the Old Kirkyard at Buittle and the more modern cemetery nearby.
Each inscription is accompanied by a high resolution digital photograph of the
gravestone, and contained on the CD are other items of historical interest.
Visit the website for further information, and details of other products for
sale. more>>
