Transcriber's notes

LAIRIG DHOIREANN was missing from the prepopulated entries for this page, the Index has it listed for this page, if I find it elsewhere I will make a note

The prepopulated entry for Lairig Ianachan was on this Page 132, I have moved it to 134 to sit with the original entry

Allt Lochan Uaine I have placed that reconsidered entry in the Extra Info because it differs a little from the account in Volume 50/135, a fair portion of it appears on Sheet 89, it is not listed in the Index for this volume. For moderator decision whether to delete.

While looking up this entry in Volume 50 I realised that the scribe creating the Index had a squiffy moment, attributing features on Sheet 90 to Sheet 76, most have been fixed in Situation but a few remain, along with a typo and some blanks:
Lochan Oran 90 should be 76 page 118
Creag an Daimh 016 should be 76 page 110
Eas Airidh Challtuinn blank situation should be 90 page 121
Allt Daimh blank sit should be 90 page 132
Lochan Uaine 76 should be 90 page 135
Lùb nan Coileach 76 should be 90 page 138
I didn't want to offend by posting as a topic.
