"Druim Fuarow. The hill abounding in springs".
The word Garcrogo is of rather difficult derivation. In its present form it would appear to be from the Gaelic words Garbh Chasige. ie The coarse or rocky place resembling a clumsy paw or literally the ? clumsy paw - NB Near this place is a confluence of streams forming a figure resembling a hand or paw which the name would be very aptly applied by a Gaelic peoples. See plan 24B. |

"Jordon I have passed through many a weary day
"On earth I wandered to be free
"Honest and poor trod lifes thorny way,
"No comfort save hope in heaven for me
"Though on this bleak hill top my body lies
"Under this stone it moulders into dust
"Remember stranger it will yet arise
"Nor taste of death again but with the past
"Eternal Anthems to my Savour raise
"Redeeming love will be our theme of praise
"Here in the place I made my grave
"Four years before I died
"And did ask some decent men
"To see me safe interred
"As I did get the grant of it
"From J Lennox of the land
"Which he did grant to give me
"As long as time doth stand |

025 |
A small river having its source in "Loch Urr" and flowing in a southerly course about 26 miles to its influx into the "Solway Frith" a little E. [East] of "Heston Island" and about midway between the "Nith" and the "Dee". With the exception of about a mile over which it cuts off a small portion of the parish of Urr is throughout a boundary line between Parishes having on the E. [East] Kilpatrick Durham Urr and [Colvend] and on the W. [West] Balmaclellan, Parton, Crossmichael and Buittle. Its tributaries are numerous, but inconsiderable with exception of one (Dalbeattie or Kirkgunzeon Burn) which has a run of Ten or Eleven Miles. About 4 1/4 Miles before it empties itself in the "Solway Frith" into begins to expand it an estuary and at its embouchure between "Heston Island' and a headland on the East, it has a breadth of very nearly 2 Miles. It is naturally navigable for [Coastal] craft for three miles above its incipient expansion, or 1/4 above its embouchure . Salmon are caught in considerable numbers in wet summers, but, in dry Seasons sea-fish can get little higher than the flow of the tide. This river for a number of miles after issuing out of "Loch Urr" holds its Course through a wild Country and over an irregular [course] but it eventually begins to shew some stripes of level and fertile land upon its banks and from the point where it [begins] to run along the parochial Margins of "Urr" it pursues its way Among increasingly level and Cultivated grounds. In its Course it is occasionally overshadowed by patches and Small thickets of wood, its vales are now and then [?] with small particles of morass, but in general have a rich natural sward of grass, and its hill [screens ?] no great elevation and are all over arable. |
