Book of Remembrance for Those Who Died in the Solway Within the Area of Annan BOOK OF REMEMBRANCE FOR THOSE WHO DIED IN THE SOLWAY WITHIN THE AREA OF ANNAN compiled by Clive Bonner edited for website by Robert Mitchell 2019 Profits from the sale of this book to Annan United Reformed Church and Annandale Churches Together for their work in the community of Annan. © Clive Bonner 2009 ISBN 9781 899316540 1 Explanation This work of Remembrance has grown from a suggestion, made by a person who lost his own father to the Solway, that the Annan fishermen who died while fishing in the Solway should have a memorial in Annan. He felt it fitting that the memorial should be in that building he knew as the 'fisherman's church', that is the Annan United Reformed Church, which was from the 1890's to 2000 the Congregational Church. With the backing of the congregation of the Annan United Reformed Church and the members of Annandale Churches Together I undertook to do the research required to bring the memorial into being. A small group of people drawn from all the interested denominations within Annan was formed and at its only meeting was tasked with providing the names of fishermen who fitted the criterion to be included on the memorial. The criterion was to limit the memorial to those who sailed from Annan or were resident in Annan at the time of their loss. Using this information, I researched in the local and national newspapers to find the reports telling the known facts, obtained from people present at the time of the tragedies. I have transcribed the reports from either the original newspapers or microfiche and have only added detail to correct factual inaccuracies using information from death certificates and family when supplied. Spellings have been modernised. It was during this year long task that I quickly became aware of just how many people, other than fishermen, had been drowned in our local stretch of the Solway Firth - which was used for leisure, work and as a direct route to England for many years prior to the erection of the railway viaduct. This Book is dedicated to all those people whose stories are recorded within it, in the hope that they will not be forgotten. The book is divided into four sections: 1. date order list of those fishermen who died while engaged in fishing. 2. date order list of those who died working, recreating or travelling. 3. date order list of Annan Mariners who died out with the Solway, included 'as is' as a matter of record only. 4. The newspaper reports from the time. Such a memorial will never be complete. I have made many public requests to the people of Annan and to those with fishing connections and I hope that the information they have furnished is as accurate and complete as possible. Some gave details which were so incomplete I have been unable to trace any records either in newspapers or official records and some offered no information at all. It is left to the reader to decide if the memorial is fifty years too late and who was or was not a fisherman. Clive Bonner September 2009 2 "The sea gave up the dead which were in it." Horatia Bonar Deep down beneath the unresting surge There is a peaceful tomb Storm raves above, calm reigns below; Safe, safe from ocean's wreck and woe, Safe from its tide's unceasing flow, The weary find a home. Calm shelter from time's vexing winds, Sure anchorage at last! The blinding sea-drift blinds not here, No breakers boom the sleeper's fear, No angry typhoon hovers near; Their latest storm is past. Done now with peril and with toil, They sleep the blessed sleep; The last wild hurricane is o'er, All silent now life's thunder roar; All quiet now the wreck-strewn shore; Tis we, not they who weep. Who dies in Christ the Lord dies well, Though on the lonely main; As soft the pillow of the deep, As tranquil the un-curtained sleep, As on the couch where fond ones weep - And they shall rise again. 3 IN REMEMBRANCE OF THOSE LOST WHILST ENGAGED IN FISHING TRAWLING THOMAS JOHNSTONE 15TH APRIL 1859 page 29 WILLIAM GARDINER 16TH FEBRUARY1860 page 30 JOSEPH HOUGHTON - 46 YRS SAMUEL HOUGHTON - 20 YRS 28TH MARCH 1874 page 38 THOMAS GRAHAM - 23 YRS JAMES BELL - 33 YRS 1ST MARCH 1880 page 39 JOSEPH BRYSON - 38 YRS 19TH JANUARY1883 page 41 BENJAMIN MCCUBBIN - 16 YRS 8TH OCTOBER 1896 page 46 4 JAMES RAE - 5l YRS 6TH DECEMBER1898 page 48 JOSEPH BRYSON - 17YRS 18TH OCTOBER 1901 page 49 ALEXANDER 'ALICK' BRYSON - 20 YRS JAMES 'JIMMY' HUNTER - 26 YRS 6TH FEBRUARY1903 page 52 SAMUEL WOODHOUSE - 20 YRS 20TH MARCH 1913 page 67 JAMES WOODHOUSE - 35YRS 17TH MARCH 1921 page 68 ALPHABETICAL INDEX AT BACK OF BOOK POKE-NET THOMAS 'TOM' WOODMAN - 79 YRS ROBERT ANDREW WOODMAN - 69 YRS 10TH JANUARY1940 page 78 WILFRED WOODMAN - 44 YRS THOMAS 'TOMMY' WOODMAN - 60 YRS RAlLTON RAE - 18 YRS FROM THE BOAT 'OLIVE' 12th NOVEMBER 1940 page 79 WILLIAM BEATTIE 'BEET' WOODMAN - 36 YRS DIED FROM INJURIES 1ST JUNE 1944 page 80 JOHN JOSEPH THOMPSON - 40 YRs 8th JUNE 1945 page 81 5 WILLIAM 'BILLY' DENNER - 15YRS DIED FROM INJURIES 2ND MARCH 1960 page 82 GEORGE WILLIAM IRVING - 72 YRS JAMES CHALMERS - 54 YRS FROM THE BOAT 'THE JEAN' BA485 13TH DECEMBER 1961 page 83 JOSEPH 'JOE' RAE WILSON - 64YRS 5TH JANUARY1966 page 85 FREDERICK 'FRED' WOODMAN - 20 YRS FROM THE BOAT "ALLIS WOOD" BA336 27TH APRIL 1971 page 85 GEORGE WILLACY - 76 YRS 30TH JUNE 1980 page 87 ALPHABETICAL INDEX AT BACK OF BOOK HAAF-NET STUART HENRY LONGFELLOW DOBIE - 19 YRS FROM THE BOAT 'FREDWOOD II' DIED OF INJURIES 27TH JANUARY1987 page 88 BRIAN 'SOLDIER' LITTLE - 53 YRS FROM THE BOAT 'QUEENSBERRY’ 13TH APRIL 2000 page 90 ALPHABETICAL INDEX AT BACK OF BOOK 6 IN REMEMBRANCE OF THOSE LOST TO THE SOLWAY RECREATION, TRAVELLERS, ENGINEERS, MARINERS, FERRYMEN WALTER SENNlTT (MASTER) FROM THE BOAT 'DENNIS OF DUBLIN’, FOUND DROWNED 14TH SEPTEMBER 1789 page 18 JAMES CLEMINSON (MASTER) - 34 YRS SIMON SCOTT - 48 YRS FROM THE SLOOP 'ANNE' 24TH JUNE 1800 page 19 JOHN SKELTON ANDREW NEAVY AND TWO UNNAMED 5TH NOVEMBER 1816 page 20 JOHN FORD WILLIAM GRAHAM PATRICKSON 7 JAMES FURGUSON 31ST MARCH 1819 page 21 BOYD - 18 OR 19 YRS (MALE) 15TH AUGUST1820 page 22 MARY KELLY - 18 YRS 10TH NOVEMBER 1822 page 23 GEORGE FURGUSSON AGNES KIRKPATRICK ROBERT LAMMAS JAMES GORDON 28TH FEBRUARY 1824 page 23 JOHN BELL 19TH AUGUST 1833 page 25 SAMUEL CRAlK 15TH JUNE 1835 page 25 ALPHABETICAL INDEX AT BACK OF BOOK WILLIAM MARSHALL 24TH JULY 1835 page 25 ROBERT BEATTIE 22ND MARCH 1838 page 26 COPELAND UNKNOWN MALE - 16/17 YRS 27TH SEPTEMBER 1840 page 27 MILES WHITE MAY 1841 page 28 JOSEPH BROUGH JOHN BECK 8 JOHN SCOTT AND WIFE 16TH AUGUST 1851 page 28 THOMAS HENRY TURNER - 3 ¾ YRS DIED OF INJURIES 10TH NOVEMBER 1866 page 30 THOMAS McKEMMINGS DIED OF INJURIES 10TH NOVEMBER 1866 page 31 JOSEPH THORBURN - 20 YRS JOHN CONNELL - 19 YRS CHARLES IRVING - 20 YRS GEORGE KERR - 19 YRS JOSEPH ROSS 26TH APRIL 1868 page 32 GEORGE IRVING - 18 YRS 18TH AUGUST 1871 page 35 ALPHABETICAL INDEX AT BACK OF BOOK JAMES AINSWORTH - 27 YRS 24TH JULY 1873 page 36 REVEREND JAMES GORDON FERRIER - 52 YRS 12TH AUGUST 1873 page 37 WILLIAM HATFIELD - 25 YRS 20TH JUNE 1875 page 38 JAMES NICHOLSON - 15 YRS WILLIAM WOODMAN - 17 YRS 16TH FEBRUARY 1882 page 40 JOHN BELL - 13 YRS WILLIAM HASTINGS - 10 YRS 9 JOHN BAIRD - 9 YRS 2ND AUGUST 1889 page 43 THOMAS CONNOR 20TH JULY 1890 page 45 WILLIAM JAMES BELL - 53 YRS 21ST JANUARY 1891 page 45 WALTER WARWICK 17TH OCTOBER 1891 page 45 JOHN LAWSON - 74 YRS FOUND DROWNED 13TH MARCH 1893 page 46 ELIZABETH LAWSON - 70 YRS FOUND DROWNED 9TH DECEMBER 1899 page 49 ROBERT EDGER (CAPTAIN) - 25 YRS DAVID MILROY (MATE) - 26 YRS JOHN MARSHALL - 18 YRS FROM THE SLOOP ‘MARY’ 8/9TH AUGUST 1903 page 59 ALPHABETICAL INDEX AT BACK OF BOOK THOMAS COULTART - 49 YRS 3RD NOVEMBER 1903 page 60 ROBERT LOCKHART - 41 YRS 4TH JANUARY1904 page 61 JOHN BAXTER - 18 YRS 25TH NOVEMBER 1906 page 62 RICHARD LUPTON DIED OF INJURIES 6TH MAY 1907 page 63 10 WILLIAM WILSON - 11 YRS 27TH SEPTEMBER 1907 page 65 MICHAEL SHARKEY - 16 YRS 8TH AUGUST1908 page 66 JAMES RAE HUNTER WEILD - 17 YRS 6TH JUNE 1930 page 68 IVAN EDGAR - 25 YRS 21ST JULY1933 page 71 GEORGE WALKER - 24 YRS WALTER MORGAN - 34 YRS WILLIAM ADAM - 28 YRS 23RD MARCH 1935 page 73 EMILY 'EMMA' RAE - 60 YRS 18TH NOVEMBER 1947 page 82 ELIZABETH MARY AIRLIE - 11 YRS 21ST JULY1961 page 83 IAN SIMPSON - 32 YRS 22ND FEBRUARY 1983 page 88 JON MARSDEN - 29 YRS 12TH SEPTEMBER 1990 page 89 ALPHABETICAL INDEX AT BACK OF BOOK· 11 IN REMEMBRANCE OF THOSE ANNAN MARINERS LOST OUT-WITH THE SOLWAY THIS IS A NON-RESEARCHED LIST OF NAMES COME ACROSS ON GRAVE STONES OR NEWSPAPER ARTICLES AND IS INCLUDED IN GOOD FAITH.

You might be forgiven if you had thought that Gretna and its twin township of Eastriggs would be constructed on a functional basis with little attention to detail.
