Transcriber's notes
Google reveals that this church erected in 1828 is located in Trumisgarry, so this detail has been added to all place names on this pageWhile the "Mr" in Revd Mr MacIntosh has been crossed out and replaced with an indecipherable, other abbreviation ("Wm"?), as this is both unclear and inconsistent with references to the Revd on the preceding and following pages, this 'change' has been ignored and "Mr" retained (while retaining "MacIntosh" rather than the "McIntosh" of other pages).
