Surely if these are held in General Register House, they would be in the National Archives of Scotland, not the NLS?
There are centainly a great many charters held by them within the dates mentioned. Perhaps if you search the NAS with some of the details from the abstracts you could find the original documents. It is possible that the Calender of Charters was what this researcher was working on, rather than using as a source.

Register House charters, 1st series, ref RH6 - this may give you some of what you are after.

If you go to the RH6 collection by browsing rather than searching you get this:
"Description: A full calendar of these charters is available in the Historical Search Room at The National Archives of Scotland. An edited version of this calendar is being added progressively to this electronic catalogue."
Given the number of charters I would be surprised if the index was not divided up for ease. Perhaps the 13 volumes are simply the index in book form. I was merely suggesting that your source might be in Register House but will not be available online in the same format. Perhaps you could try contacting them to ask?
