Sources

  • Alphabetical List of Names Found On Memorials In Pillaton Churchyard, collated by Mrs Diana Jevons up to August 1984.

  • That list was edited and updated to 15 May 1999 by Chris Wood. References to 'Editor' in these PDFs refer to him.

  • Further revisions and additions - and all the photographs - were done by John Wheeley. His work is shown in italics.

The combined work of these three people constitute a huge task, and we thank them.

​

Notes

  • A few of the memorials have not been found, so their photos are missing.

  • Names in [square brackets] at the end of the inscription are those of the engravers as shown on the stone.

  • There are probably some inaccuracies and errors in these documents.
