I understand a copy is held at the Isle of Arran Heritage Museum. They would also be able to confirm my hunch that there were no newspapers produced specifically on Arran during the period you mention. They should also be able to confirm that there is only one cemetery at Lochranza. Now the Isle of Arran Heritage Museum is closed to visitors until April 2004, however you may get some information by writing to info@arranmuseum.co.uk Peter List Admin ButeshireGenWeb-L
