    Proc Soc Antiq Scot, 135 (2005), 423–442THOMSON; TOMBSTONE LETTERING IN DUMFRIES AND GALLOWAY | 423 Research in inscriptional palaeography (RIP). Tombstone lettering in Dumfries and Galloway George Thomson* ABSTRACT A comprehensive and detailed survey was made of lettering on all accessible tombstone inscriptions in Dumfries and Galloway. Using statistical and other analytical techniques, a large amount of data was extracted. From this, comparisons were made with data from the author’s previous study of inscriptional lettering throughout Scotland. The distributions of a number of letterform attributes were mapped, in some instances revealing clear geographical trends. The interesting subregional groupings in Dumfries and Galloway identified in the initial national survey were confirmed when the comprehensive data were used, though the distinctions were not so clear-cut. The rise of three more or less distinct area profiles identified using 42 letterform attributes is likened to the development of a dialect or accent, not learned by imitation, but subconsciously acquired as a consequence of living in local divergent communities. INTRODUCTION for the study of local communities, traditions and tastes. Moreover, it can be used as a cultural Lettering on tombstones of the late and post- marker.

The author (Thomson 2002) or by statistical analysis of data undertook a survey of gravestone lettering extracted from a range of seemingly abstruse throughout Scotland based on a sample of 132 attributes. The analysis of data based on 42 mainland burial sites (Thomson 2001a).

  • Place-Names in and Around the Fleet Valley
    Place-names in and around the Fleet Valley ==== L ==== Lady’s Well This well, with clear water running under covering stones now overgrown by bushes, is in Skyreburn Glen near the site of Kirkbride Chapel. Lady’s Well, Lady Well and Ladywell are common throughout England and Lowland Scotland. In most cases probably, and in a good many certainly, the name refers to Our Lady. That is probably the case here, given its proximity to the chapel dedicated to St Bride or Brighid (see Kirkbride above), who was known from as early as the seventh century as ‘Mary of the Irish’ or ‘of the Gaels’. Among many other powers ascribed to her, she was patroness of women in childbirth, and a late-recorded legend from the Hebrides even portrays her as midwife to Mary. A similar hint of an association between the Blessed Virgin and St. Bride is found in Kirkcolm parish in the North Rhinns, which contains St. Mary’s Well (marked as a historic monument on OS maps) to the south of the kirktoun, Lady Bay to the north, and Kirkbryde, with St. Bride’s Well, to the west. In the absence of evidence, we should be cautious of speculating, but it is reasonable to suppose that some beliefs connecting St. Bride and the Blessed Virgin were associated with these places, and maybe there was some cultic use of the wells, with pre-Christian roots. As suggested above, the cult of St. Bride may have been introduced in the tenth century by the Gall-Ghàidheil, and such beliefs and practices would have come with it.

    322 A Revolutionary American Family There were various theories about what the word "Pluckemin" meant. Some said it was derived from an Indian word; others said it referred to the way Jacob Eoff, the German tavern keeper in the village, would lure travelers into his establishment "by nailing a loose horseshoe to the ground on the road outside his tavern... the passers-by would certainly dismount to grab the shoe, and Eoff would "Pluck-'em-in."2350 Rev. Samuel Parry of Somerville, New Jersey, the pastor of the Presbyterian Church of Pluckemin, wanted to get to the bottom of it all and spent a considerable amount of time investigating the meaning of the name "Pluckemin." His findings were presented in the Somerset County Historical Quarterly in 1912.2351 Pluckemin Presbyterian Church, New Jersey Upon reading a Scottish book called The Standard Bearer and discovering within it references to "Clachan of Pluckamin" and "Four Roads of Pluckemin," Rev. Parry commenced a correspondence with its author, Samuel Rutherford Crockett, who affirmed that there was indeed a "small hamlet" in the Lowlands of Dumfries and Galloway in southwestern Scotland, called Pluckamin or Pluckemin, spelled with either an "a" or an "e."2352 Crockett himself was born nearby. He recollected that it had been a farm town with a few small thatched houses, though at the time he 2353 was writing (1901) only one small house remained on what was then – and still is – the Farm of Bargatton. Samuel Rutherford Crockett Memorial in Samuel Rutherford Crockett Dumfries and Galloway, Scotland Laurieston, Dumfries and Galloway About two miles north of Pluckamin there was a larger village called Clachanpluck2354 in the center of the Parish of Balmaghie, where the Presbytery met frequently.

  • Parishes and Congregations: Names No Longer in Use
    S E C T I O N 9 A Parishes and Congregations: names no longer in use The following list updates and corrects the ‘Index of Discontinued Parish and Congregational Names’ in the previous online section of the Year Book. As before, it lists the parishes of the Church of Scotland and the congregations of the United Presbyterian Church (and its constituent denominations), the Free Church (1843–1900) and the United Free Church (1900–29) whose names have completely disappeared, largely as a consequence of union. This list is not intended to be ‘a comprehensive guide to readjustment in the Church of Scotland’. Its purpose is to assist those who are trying to identify the present-day successor of a former parish or congregation whose name is now wholly out of use and which can therefore no longer be easily traced. Where the former name has not disappeared completely, and the whereabouts of the former parish or congregation may therefore be easily established by reference to the name of some existing parish, the former name has not been included in this list. Present-day names, in the right-hand column of this list, may be found in the ‘Index of Parishes and Places’ near the end of the book. The following examples will illustrate some of the criteria used to determine whether a name should be included or not: • Where all the former congregations in a town have been united into one, as in the case of Melrose or Selkirk, the names of these former congregations have not been included; but in the case of towns with more than one congregation, such as Galashiels or Hawick, the names of the various constituent congregations are listed.
