We're in the midst of a gravestone survey at Loudoun kirkyard as there are no official records of burials and many of the gravestones are deteriorating or being damaged by vandals. The gravestones are the only records so if they're lost - so is all the information. They are all being photographed, and inscriptions recorded in detail, once that is complete, we will be puting the info onto CD Rom and submitting to all relevant offices such as Ayrshire Archives, local council office etc. We will also add it to our web site. Unfortunately to save storage space, we downsized the photos using "resize" not realising by doing that, we'd also lose some of the pixels. It means that many of the stones will now have to be re-photographed to show clearer inscriptions. We have been trying to get information from families of those buried at Loudoun kirkyard especially if they have evidence of Loudoun kirkyard burials = perhaps from a death cert. It is quite confusing though as three churches in the area have Loudoun in their name and Loudoun Kirk is also a village.
