OS1/35/43/2 [Page] 2 There are many names on this Plan where the syllable "Der" is a prefix, and in one case is compounded as in Blairderry (See page 7), nearly all those names having such prefixes as "Der or Dir" Mr McHaffie has changed to Dar except in Dergoals Moss (See page 4) where the "e" is adopted in the prefix while in page 14, the same name has been corrected to Dargoals, these names have been submitted a second time to Mr McHaffie, and that Gentleman says that he would prefer "Dar of Dir" - This disagrees with names previously given on other Plans and as the majority of the local authorities prefer Der this (latter) has been adopted with the exception of "Dirskelpin" where the name as given by Mr Guthrie the Factor to the Estate has been adopted, and some other names which fall on Plan 18 C. The Spelling the prefix "Der" agrees more generally with the usage both in Scotland and Ireland, and the following note from Chalmers Caledonia Vol [Volume] 1 page 52, would seem to confirm it. "Derry, several in Wigton, Ferry, in Perth, Derry in Forfar, Derrydu, in Elgin, Derry - meanoch & Derry-more forests in Sutherland". "Dar in the British, and ancient Gaulish, signifies Oak, oakwood; plural Deri, so Dar, "in the Cornish; plural Deru; Dair Irish, means Oak, and Doiré, a thicket, a grove, a wood. " properly of Oaks; in several parts the word is pronounced Derrie: and Dirrie"
