The Abbot of Dundrennan was the head of the Cistercian monastic community of Dundrennan Abbey, Galloway. It was founded by Fergus of Galloway in 1142. Dundrennan was a large and powerful monastery in the context of the south-west. It became secularised and protestanised in the 16th century. In 1606 it was finally turned into a secular lordship in for John Murray of Lochmaben, afters earl of Annandale. The royal warrant in 1886 which revived the office of Dean of the Chapel Royal also gave the Dean the titles of Abbot of Crossraguel and Abbot of Dundrennan.〔Stair Memorial Encyclopaedia of the Laws of Scotland, Volume 7: The Crown, paragraph 838.〕 The following is a list of abbots and commendators: __NOTOC__ ==List of abbots== * Silvanus, fl. 1167〔Known when, in 1167, he was elected abbot of Rievaulx, Dundrennan's mother-house.〕 * William, 1180 * Nicholas, l196 x 1200 * (Egidius ), fl. 13th century〔Known only by a graveslab; graveslab thought to date to the 13th century.〕 * Gaufridus (Geoffrey), 1209 x 1222 * Robert Matursal, 1223 x 1224 * Jordan, 1236 * Leonius, 1236–1239 * Ricardus (Richard), 1239 * Adam I, 1250 * Brian, 1250–1273 * Adam II, 1294 * Walter, 1296 * John, 1305 * William, 1332 * Giles, 1347 - 1358 x 1381 * Thomas, 1381 * Patrick MacMen, x 1426 * Thomas de Levinstone, 1429 * Patrick Maligussal (), 1431 * Thomas de Levinstone (again), x1440-1454〔Became abbot on 20 May 1429.
