Hint
Try working backwards, with each churn containing 18 gallons.

Answer
12, 33, and 9 gallons respectively for churns 1, 2, and 3.

Reasoning
Working backwards, at the end after Pour 3, the churns (C1, C2, C3) contained:
   C1   C2   C3
   ————————————
   18   18   18 after Pour 3

Pour3 was ¹/₃ of C3 into C1, the remaining ²/₃ has to be the 18 gallons left in C3 after the pour, which means that ¹/₃ is 9 gallons. So 9 gallons was poured from C3 into C1. Before Pour3, C1 must have contained 9 gallons, and C3 contained 27 gallons.
   C1   C2   C3
   ————————————
    9   18   27 after Pour 2
   18   18   18 after Pour 3

Pour2 was ¹/₂ of C2 into C3, the remaining ¹/₂ has to be the 18 gallons left in C2 after the pour, which means that ¹/₂ is 18 gallons. So 18 gallons was poured from C2 into C3. Before Pour2, C2 must have contained 36 gallons, and C3 contained 9 gallons.
   C1   C2   C3
   ————————————
    9   36    9 after Pour 1
    9   18   27 after Pour 2
   18   18   18 after Pour 3

Pour1 was ¹/₄ of C1 into C2, the remaining ³/₄ has to be the 9 gallons left in C1 after the pour, which means that ¹/₄ is 3 gallons. So 3 gallons was poured from C1 into C2. Before Pour2, C1 must have contained 12 gallons, and C2 contained 33 gallons.
   C1   C2   C3
   ————————————
   12   33    9 at the start
    9   36    9 after Pour 1
    9   18   27 after Pour 2
   18   18   18 after Pour 3
