Transcriber's notes
'Eag' is a notch or gap.
Allt Creag na Leacainn is entered but not pre-populated. In the index as Page 98 and is on the map, although not in the list of associated names, so should be transcribed.
Similarly Creag na Leacainn is entered and not pre-populated but is listed in the Index as on page 99 which is wrong. Although it appears on map sheet 89 it is not listed in associated names. I have transcribed it for this page.
Castle Hill, Creag a'Chalmain, and Creag na Leacainn are all on the line of the boundary between Duthil & Rothiemurchus and Abernethy & Kincardine parishes. Eag Coire a' Choineachaidh and Allt Creag na Leacainn are fully in Abernethy & Kincardine parish.
