Parish notes
An independent parsonage in lay patronage in the mid 15th c., the church remained unappropriated at the Reformation when the patronage lay with Lord Herries of Terregles, in whose family it had rested since at least 1486 (CPL xii, 470; RSS i no.1535; Morton Papers Box 11 - 8th May 1548; RMS ii no. 1654; Retours Dumfries no. 23). Cowan 1967, 202.
