Sheet 126 Argyllshire

(Site of) Chapel:
"The Church of Kilmorich of which we have no early record, is said to mean the Church of Saint Maurice, who is believed
to have been sent by Saint Columba about the year 600 *** The Old Church stood at the head of Loch Fyne apparently
on the right bank of the River Fyne, The Modern Church stands at Cairndow near Kilmorich on the eastern shore of the Loch."
Origines Parochiales Pages 82 & 83

Transcriber's notes

"Burial Ground" & "Site of Chapel" are both followed by G.T., I notice on Sheet 126 they are written in Gothic Font, is the T for Typeface?

Ordnance Survey - Argyll county

Ordnance Survey was established in the 18th century to create maps, surveys and associated records for the entirety of Great Britain. These records are arranged by county. 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.
