Anne Here's a possibility: http://getamap.ordnancesurvey.co.uk/getamap/frames.htm Search for Mountgerald. Then click the plus sign and you will see "Clyyne Bridge" and the "Clyne Burn". Are/were these in Kiltearn Parish or in Dingwall Parish, anyone? The only other Clyne I could find in the area was Brora, a long way to the north.
