Transcriber's notes

Note that Mam Suim is on the border of sheets 74/75 in two parts but not on the name list. It is an extension of Stac Na h-Iolaire.
The entry for Tamh- Dhruim had not been pre-populated but it is listed in the Index for this page and appears on the map sheet 75 referenced to this page, so I have added the transcription.
