Transcriber's notes
An Caolas is followed by a notation in brackets it looks to be "(m)" I have not transcribed it as unsure if it is m for masculine or something quite other. The gender of nouns is not often noted in the Name Books.ALLT COIRE CHORCAIG was the prepopulated entry: the Name Book, the Index and Sheet 31 all have it hypenated: "Coire-chorcaig" and I have changed it accordingly.
