Transcriber's notes
Dalwhat Water - Authorities - there is a faint 4th entry Johnston's Map (and Dalwhat Water in the Various modes of Spelling column)
NB: Descriptive Remarks - a previous transcriber has written 'Fernhead' (Burn) on p.24 and 27. Compare the way Munro writes his 'F' in 'Farmhouse' in the Drumloff entry and 'K' in e.g. (Upper) 'Kirkcudbright' p.163, or 'Knowe' on p30 or 32. Unfortunately, there doesn't seen to be any other entries for Kernhead (or Kirnhead) or Fernhead in SP and I can't find these names on the maps
