Rev. [Reverend] C.S. Adie, Ph. [Parish] Minister Robert Stocks, Factor Val. [Valuation] Roll |
020 | A farm steading, the property of the Earl of Dalhousie, People in this district when writing this name spell it "Burnsagard" or "sagart", and when speaking of it change the "Burn" into "Bon", Both are evidently corruptions, the original Gaelic having been doubtless Baile nan Sagart or Priests' town and has reference, in some manner, to the Chapel or Circle at Dalbog. In Forfarshire we find "Baile-na" or "Baile nan" to be invariably corrupted into "Bonny" or "Bon". "Bon" being therefore nearest the original, ought to be adopted. |
