I'm hoping someone can help me identify a farm/location. The Logan family farmed at "Ballnoe" or "Balnoeugh", Kilcoy estate, Ross-shire. (Generally they lived near Knockbain.) Can anyone identify this farm/location? Thanks for your help! Cyndi Sweet

Hi Cyndi, Try this site...it gives Black Isle names...maybe Ballone? Kilcoy is in the Black Isle, in Killearnan, next to Knockbain.

I've looked at the 1:25,000 OS map and can't see a house with a name like this in the vicinity of Kilcoy. Nor does a seacrh with postcode software throw up anything obvious. There are Balloan names but they are in Marybank several miles from Kilcoy.
