Mull A brief history and description.
Please advise me if you can't find 'your' townland on these lists. (Roy McGilvray cv297@ncf.ca) There are other researchers I can ask. If your map doesn't show the location I can give you more specific directions from more detailed maps plus descriptions from two good Scottish Gazetteers. My main sources have been: Blaeu's Atlas, Langland's Atlas 1801, Thomson's Atlas 1822, an AA Book, and the 1885 Ordnance Survey (the latter is inexpensively available from the Map Dept of the Nat’l Lib of Scotland; maps@nls.uk and www.nls.uk/access/mapser.htm). This site will be improved when I find a cheap, digital, 3D map of Mull. And, I'd like full-size, postcard views of the main areas (but this uses too much space and slows down the system). I'd like to have a history of each particular area and its notable families (but I have only the history of the McG clan in the Ross and Brolass). I'd also like a photographic memory and an airline pass. :-)
