Transcriber's notes

Allt Fheàrna, Index: Sheet 124 Page 129 & Sheet 124 Page 123 both merge with Abhainn Fionain
There is no Index entry for Page 139, the original entry on this page has been crossed out, deemed unimportant, signed Cwor [Surveyor??] There is no Allt Fheàrna on the map in the region of Allt Gainmheine, it seems to have been left off as per the above. For these reasons I deleted this Prepopulated entry but transcribed the deleted record into "continued entries/ extra info because the description of Allt Gainmheine refers to it.

Slocabhothan, description re Druimdarroch (S124 T16) Should be S123 T16
