    3. Joyce - where does one find this survey done by the Earl? Like Natalie, I have DEWARs from that area around Loch Tay, Killin, Edinchip, Lawers, all along Strath Fillan. The Earl's records would surely be helpful! Regards - Glen C.

I believe Ardtalnaig means 'height of the cattle pass' As Katie says, it is on the south side of Loch Tay - about half-way between Kenmore village and Killin. The Earl of Breadalbane conducted a survey of the whole region in 1769. William's father, John McKenzie, is listed as residing in Rhevucky (Remony), married to a Margaret Malloch. Interesting, huh? I'll dig up the records and the map of the area tomorrow and see if I can find Lurgin. I'll get back to you with whatever I find. Joyce Ontario/Canada Researching McKenzie, Fisher, Stewart, McGregor
