If you go to the National Library of Scotland maps website (which is free), click on Series Maps, and you will have access to old large-scale Ordnance Survey maps of the area.

Thanks. Found Crofts on the Ordinance Maps,  but still looking for Tomlea.

Find "Tom Riabhach" in the middle it is just above that.  Or to the left of vertical "Y" in Spey.
I have turned off all email notifications, thank you.

Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.

Think this may be a photo (attached) of Tomlea taken from a screen shot from google maps. House on east side of B9102 south of Kirdellbeg Farm. Can someone confirm?
