Apologies just been fiddling and realise that my orginal suggestion re Tombowie must be wrong as in 1841 George McCainsh age 45 and wife Isabella were living at Tombowie, Monzie and neighbouring properties included Keppoch, Cuith, Auldcarron and Parknock/Parknuek.

Two of these properties can be seen on this map which also includes Monzie but I can't see Tombowie or a version of it at the moment https://maps.nls.uk/view/74428174#zoom=6&lat=8615&lon=11442&layers=BT

This is a link to Scotlands Places Ordance Survey Name Book for the parish of Monzie https://scotlandsplaces.gov.uk/digital-volumes/ordnance-survey-name-books/perthshire-os-name-books-1859-1862/perthshire-volume-59/8   I have looked through the pages but can't see Tombowie mentioned

Possibly Tombuie?  https://www.mindat.org/loc-254548.html
That Tombuie is in the parish of Logierait.

Tombuy in the older map looks promising.
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.
