1811 Tenants List; Page 1

Hi all,
Helen (Campbell) Blair and I have been putting our heads together, trying to translate the 1811 

tenant list, to share with all of you. Please note that some pages are difficult to read. Spelling of 

some farm names vary from year to year. I'm using "Place Names of Islay" published by the Museum of 

Islay Life, as well as the "Daybook of Daniel Campbell of Shawfield" for reference as to names and spellings.
