County Dumbarton

"The ancient parish comprised besides the isle of
Inchcailyoch, most of the neighbouring islands,
and a high mountainous tract on the eastern shores
of the lake, including the ridge of Benlomond.
In 1621, it was increased by the annexation of the
forty pound lands of Buchanan, which were, by
an act of Privy Council, disjoined from Luss.
The ancient church of Inchcailyoch stood near the
shore of the island and was in use subsequent to
1621. It was dedicated to Kentigerna, a holy widow,
sister of St. Congan, and mother of St. Fillan."
