[Note beside 'Tolduquhill']
This is a most awkward spelling, but cannot be changed. The accent is on the last syllable & the name is pron'd [pronounced] Toldywhill, while the spelling suggests Tolduwhill. It is therefore not- of the black or dark wood but of the two woods.(?) [Initialled] JMcD
[Note beside 'Quillichan Burn'] - Tarsuinn. Across, transversely or obliquely; over, from side to side.
Caochan. A rivulet; an eddy of air; whiskey in its first process of distillation.

Ordnance Survey - Aberdeen county
Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Aberdeen, which is in the north east of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
