Aberdeenshire -- Parish of Crathie & Braemar

[Note relating to 'Creag Doineanta'] - The CS [Common Speech] is Craig Doin. The Queen's Book has Daign. Doineanta, if the proper word,
should be Dh, which is against this derivation, of course Dh may have hardened. The local authorities may
be right, but the gamekeepers at Balmoral say they never heard the name
so pronounced. [Initialled] JMcD
