About the memorial: 'Roll of Honour'- no other details known. Cullybackey Methodist congregation has an unusual history. According to an article written by Elizabeth Wiseman, the original church (pictured on this site) started life as a Presbyterian church in 1839. Presbyterianism had many schisms and this church was one of the seceding churches. In 1858 it became a United Presbyterian church and in 1890 it changed again to become part of the Free Church of Scotland, whose headquarters is in Scotland. That continued until 1922 when the Minister resigned. The Free Church of Scotland declined to send a replacement and suggested that the congregation merge with another Presbyterian church in the area. The congregation decided against that and instead all changed denomination to Methodist. It then became a Methodist church until 1969, when a new church was built nearby on Shellinghill Road. Some older folk in Cullybackey refer to this church as the “Scots Kirk.”
