"The whole district of Knapdale formed originally
one parish, called Cil Mhic O Charmaig, the
Burying ground of the son of O' Carmaig. This
O'Carmaig is said to have been an Irish Saint, who founded the first church in Knapdale. In 1734 the district of Knapdale was divided into two parishes called North and South Knapdale. The name is very descriptive of the local aspect of the parish which is beautifully diversified by plains and valleys separated by hills, and watered by a multitude of small rivulates. The parish is a 13½ miles in length from north-east to south-west, and about 6 miles in breadth, including a narrow arm of the seawhich divides the parish into two nearly equal parts. It is bounded on the south & south-east by the parish of South Knapdale; on east & north-east, by the Crinan Canal & Loch Crinan, on the west & south-west by the Sound of Jura which separates that island from the mainland. |

Sir,
I received your letter a few
days ago, respecting a small Island
in Crinan Harbour, called Eilean
da mhéinn (not da bhan as you
term it) signifying Island of
2 Ores, or mines. - Whether Lead-ore
or Pewter-mine, I cannot say.
I remember both you and
W. Hannay.
With Kind regards to you
I am
yours respectfully
