Hi all Ida's query re the Rev Neil McDougall sparked a number of e-mails about the Fasti. First published in 1886 they were updated in the early 1900's. These may all be accessed on-line as .pdf's - http://www.dwalker.pwp.blueyonder.co.uk/Map.htm - but beware they are all quite sizeable downloads.  For those of you not used to .pdf's. Once the Volume has downloaded put your cursor accross the bottom of the screen to bring up the (hidden) tool bar.  Click on the bow sign at the right.  This will bring up the side-bar from where you can search. The reference to county names, eg Argyll, does not restrict the entry to that Civil County Regards Les Fasti Ecclesiae Scoticanae, The succession of Scottish ministers in the Church of Scotland from the Reformation, by the Rev.
