Transcriber's notes
MENOCK WATER
- one Authority is 'Statisl. of Dumfries & Inverness', this may be the The New Statistical Account of Scotland, Volume 9, Dumfries - Inverness, February 1836. (Same reference appears on page 163 of this volume.)
HORSEMAN'S LINN
- One of the authors of the page uses 'comma' instead of 'apostrophe', I have transcribed as written.
