The old Camus-juxta-Mourne Parish Church, Christ Church, Patrick Street, Strabane c1860, erected by the 1st Earl of Abercorn in 1619. It was replaced in 1879 by the present grander building which is prominently located on the Bowling Green in the centre of the town. All marriages recorded below were solemnised in this ancient place of worship. Note the crowded condition of the graveyard.
