Baldovie and Drumgeich, £420.0.0 Baldovie, Drumgeith, Kellyfield, Montpellier, No Decree of Division can be traced dividing the Lands of Baldovie from Drumgeith; but in the oldest Cess Book extant, (1748) and in all subesquent years, they stand thus-
Baldovie, Drumgeith, £245.0.0 David Anderson, Esq. now Mrs. Kirkaldy, £175.0.0
From and entry in the Cess Book for the year 1798, it appears that the above Cumulo of £245.0.0 for Drumgeith had been divided by Decree dated 4th October, 1791, as under:-
1. David Fyffe for Drumgeith, Patrick Kerr, Esq. £141.4.0
2. James Smith for Kellyfield, James Lorimer, Esq. £95.18.0

Pitkerro, £466.15.4 Pitkerro, Mungo Dick, Esq. £466.13.4
Wallace Craigie, including his acres, £253.6.8 Wallace Craigie, In the Cess Books ever since 1748, the Lands of Wallace Craigie have stood at £233.6.8 being £20.0.0 less than the original Valuation; but as it does not appear that any part of the Lands have been disposed of, the decrease is supposed to have arisen from a clerical mistake in transcribing the Cess Books. The £20.0.0 lost sight of is, therefore, now added, Constable, Esq. £253.6.8
Bailie Thomas Watson, £20.0.0 Bailie Watson's Lands, William Wilson £20.0.0
Earl of Lauderdale, for Dudhope, £1735.0.0 It has been found imposible to trace the remaining Lands in this Parish from the entry in the original Roll, down to the present time. The Cess Book for 1748 has, therefore, been assumed as the ground of the following entries, and the Lands deduced from that date to their present Proprietors.
Hospital of Dundee, for Stible's acres, £40.0.0
John Pierson's acres, £25.0.0
Mr George Anderson, £12.10.0
Inverightie's acres, £12.10.0
