Transcriber's notes
I have been transcribing the Collector's name as "John E. Durnan R S [Royal Sappers] & Miners", as it was accepted on the first page of this volume that I tried -OS1/11/16/61. I have just seen the name transcribed by another volunteer as " John E. DAVERAN etc" on page 66 of this volume, and on looking very carefully, it could be right. I have changed my earlier pages to "Daveran" as he does appear in the list of Surveyors etc.

Ordnance Survey - Midlothian 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 Midlothian, which is in the east of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
