PAUL JONES LINKS KIRKCUDBRIGHT WITH THE U.S. NAVY  

THE ancient town of Kirkcudbright (pronounced Kir-coo-bry)  

is situated on the estuary of the River Dee in south-west Scot-  

land —a beautiful land of hills and rivers, wooded glens and purple  

feather, land which was the birthplace of Christianity in the  

fourth century and the home of monks and feudal lords in the  

tenth century. The Royal Burgh of Kirkcudbright has memories  

of the Romans, of Scottish kings, of family feuds and forays of  

the privateer Paul Jones and of Robert Burns. Its charter dates  

back to the year 1455, and apparently derived its name from the  

“Kirk of Cuthbert,” its ancient church having been dedicated to  

that saint.  

Franciscan monastery was founded at Kirkcudbright in the  

>arly thirteenth century, and the friary church was used as the  

parish church until two hundred years ago, but only fragment of  

this still stands. Kirkcudbright is said to have been agreed upon  

as landing-place for the Spanish Armada in 1588 by Philip II  

and Lord Maxwell. ....  

An important link connects the Stewartry of Kirkcudbright  

with the U.S.A., for it was in this rural county that John Paul  

Jones, founder of the American Navy, was born. The cottage where  

he lived is in the nearby Parish of Kirkbean and can still be seen.  

The above picture shows the Old Tolbooth at Kirkcudbright  

where Paul Jones was once held prisoner on charge of murder  

and afterwards acquitted. In the background (right) is the Cochran  

Memorial Gymnasium, which was gift to the burgh by  

prominent American business man, the late Mr. Thomas Cochran,  

to commemorate his family associations with the burgh.
