CULTER CHURCHYARD Photographs & Monumental Inscriptions
« on: Monday 02 June 14 22:00 BST (UK) »
Culter Parish churchyard in South Lanarkshire, photographs taken April 2014. I have added the earliest decipherable date on the stone after the surnames. On a few occasions I had to refer to Sheila Scott's "Upper Ward of Lanarkshire Monumental Inscriptions" to figure out a few of the names. It is a beautiful area and worth a visit. Most of the stones are in excellent condition.
See the list of names below. If you require a picture please PM me with you email address.

This is brilliant - if you would be able to send me the five images that have the 'Tweedie' name in, that would be fabulous. I've just found one connection to the Culter kirk so this will be a great place to start! Thanks

Hi sunflower, welcome to Rootschat.

Here are the photographs you asked for, I may have to make 2 posts because of the size. They are not all legible but may give you a start. Unfortunately, they are all females, which makes it more difficult if you are researching the male line.

good luck,

Lodger.
