    The Protestant Graveyard of Stabannon
    From notes of Rev. Canon J.B. Leslie M.A at present living at Kilsaran
    The protestant Church and graveyard at Stabannon is mentioned as long ago as 1344. The last protestant vicar was Rev John Grahame BA who died in 1863. Nothing of the church now remains except a square tower or belfry, but people are still buries in the graveyard.
