OS1/4/18/4 Kirkmichael Continued [continued from page 3] its limits. "Its upper part, to the length of 12 or 15 miles, lies wholly among the Cairngorm Grampians, and is uninhabited. Its lower part consists of the vale and both screens of the Avon down to near the influx of the Livet, and is bounded on the one side by Glenlivet, and on the other side by the estate of Ballindalloch. The water of the Alltnach traces the western boundary for about 6 miles; and lofty lines of water-shed form most of the other boundaries, both with the contiguous counties and with Inveraven. Natural barriers separate it almost everwhere from the surrounding and more open districts. *** It is altogether a wildly Highland region - called, indeed, by the Gaelic-speaking population, a Strath, under the name of Strathaven - but really being nothing else for many miles than one of the wildest of the Highland glens, and then softening little more for a number of miles, than to become barely inhabitable. *** The banks of the Avon, however, are pleasant enough, and in different places tufted with groves of birch, mixed with some alder." Fullarton's Gazetteer. Tomintoul and all the district south thereof was erected a parish Quoad Sacra by the General Assembly in 1833, the Church being situated in the village of Tomintoul, the parish church stands about 5 miles further to the north.

McLennan 046 This name applies to two large Stones imbedded in the soil on the west bank of the River Avon and means Avon's Grave; the following is the local tradition of these stones. Glen Avon was originally peopled by the Fingalian race; Fingal, their chief, residing among them. Fingal's wife being, on one occasion, desirous of crossing the river during the time it was in a flooded state, made the attempt to do so at the waterfall now known as the Linn of Avon, at which place the river is very narrow, in so doing she either miscalculated the distance across, or her foot slipped, as she fell into the river and was drowned. Her body was afterwards recovered and interred on the banks of the river in which she had lost her life, a large stone being erected both at the head and foot of the grave to mark the spot wherein her remains was consigned, and in commemmoration of the unhappy event, Fingal named the Glen and River after his lost wife. - Abhuinn.
