OS1/21/17/1 CRAWFORDJOHN [parish] Crawfordjohn Crawford John Statistical account for Crawfordjohn p 497 Statistical account for Wiston & Roberton p 93 Statistical Account for Lamington & Wandel p 805 Statistical Account for Douglas p 477 Johnston's County Map Forrest's County Map 042; 043; 045; 046; 047; 049 The origin of the name cannot be easily discovered. Chalmers, in his Caledonia, relates a story on the subject, with all becoming gravity, proceeding upon the supposition that names of a similar construction are to be discovered everywhere throughout Scotland. 'John the son of Baldwin de Biggar' he says held in the reign of Malcolm 4 a portion of this extensive mountainous district. He assumed the name of Crawford, and fixed his residence on Duneaton river, and from him the name of the settlement was called John's town and in some Charters it is designed valla Johannis privigni Baldwinnie. Before 1279 the district of Crawfordjohn , he continues, was established as a distinct parish, and the Chapel of John's town became the parish Church, hence the name of Crawfordjohn was affixed to the parish. But this summary mode of accounting for the name cannot be satisfactory to any one who recollects, that there are

OS1/21/17/1 The details in the extra info is written in a different hand to that of the rest of the record.
OS1/21/17/2 are no Authorities produced by him, and that it is not merely the only parish, but the only village (I presume) in Scotland, which is designated by a Christian and family name, joined together in this awkward unusual form. According to Forrests Map of the County, the length of the parish is between 11 and 12 miles, and its breadth between 9 & 10, and it contains 41.50 square miles and 21.123 scots acres. This is the parish in Lanarkshire which unites with it the counties of Dumfries and Ayr. This parish may be said to consist of one large glen, along with the adjoining hills, ascending from Clyde and Abington to Cairntable on the borders of Ayrshire. The village of Crawfordjohn may be about 200 feet lower than Leadhills, which is understood to be 1280 feet above the level of the sea, and that the top of Cairntable is 1650. Duneaton is the only river, unless Snar and Blackburn be honoured with the same appellation. In several places, there are Chalybeate and petrifying springs. Only one of ten heritors of the parish constantly resides in it. There are five miles of the Glasgow and Carlisle road in this parish, and nearly the same of the Biggar and Leadhill road. Only one bridge is entirely in the parish, over Duneaton; and on the Glasgow road; the parish, however, is connected with the parishes of Crawford and Roberton by two bridges - one over Duneaton, and another over Glengonner. In this parish, there are no fewer than 8 houses in which spirituous or malt liquors are sold. Statistical Account 1841 There are no detached portions of this Parish, nor are there any detached portions of any other Parish within it. Are there any det [detached] portions of Crawfordjohn? or det [detached] of any other parish within Crawfordjohn [a signature]
