Tradition had it that a child about a month old, the son of some chieftain, had been buried here, and that the name was derived from this circumstance. Some time since the flag was removed, and beneath it was found a stone coffin, (Cist) but it contained only a little dust. Since then the name has extended itself, and now applies to a considerable portion of the field. Sig: [Signification] The flag of the monthold child |

This entry has been created to enable searching for Ordnance Survey records for the county of Argyll, which is in the west of Scotland. The boundaries of the county were altered by the Boundary Commissioners in 1891.
