Ive just come across your posts. I have various Bowlby info which could be of interest to you.  But particularly interested in the Long arm journal with AS Bowlby's photos included. Was this ever published and if so, how do I get a copy. fyo: Arthur Salvin Bowlby was my first cousin twice removed.

Hi

I am researching my Knoydart family tree as my mother was a McDonald from Airor.
In the process, I was sent an image of Knoydart gamekeepers which I am sure will be of interest to you!

Best regards

David Mackay
