Well, I've been through all the old maps - as Sandy has - and I'm reading the Old Statistical Accounts for the third time just incase it's mentioned but so far zilch.

Thanks, Sylvia. I think we've looked through that and all the other ones on the site but nothing found so far.

Sylvia that's a fabulous map!  The lettering does seem similar almost germanic in type.

A great find.  No doubt I shall spend another afternoon punishing my eyesight!

If you like old maps, this site has most of them - over the years, I've found all sorts of farmsteads where my KKD families lived
