Parish notes
The patronage had been erected into a prebend of the collegiate church of Lincluden before 1498, it then lying within the patronage of the Maxwells of Tinwald RSS i no. 245.While the church had apparently been an independent parsonage in 1427, some connection with Lincluden may be seen in an agreement of 1437, but the date of erection must remain conjectural CSSR ii, 160; CPL viii, 630. See Cowan 1967, 198 for more refs.. Includes medieval parish of Trailflat TFX
