I am looking for more exact location of two places. I know both are reasonably close to the village of Luthermuir and I can find names similar, but not the same, in 1868 and modern maps. 1st Place: "Mains of Caldhame" - I can find "Feus of Caldhame", "West Caldhame", "Waterside of Caldhame", "Caldhame Haugh", "Caldhame Mill" and "Caldhame" all in a little cluster on the eastern side of Luthermuir. 2nd Place: "Muirton of Inglismaldie" - I can find "Inglismaldie Forest" and near it "Inglismaldie", "Inglismaldie Cottage" and close to the "Inglismaldie Forest" are "South Muirton", "Mid Muirton" and "East Muirton". All a little to the south and west of Caldhame. It would help me if I could more precisely locate these two places. Thank you and merry Christmas.

Steve, "Mains of Caldhame" is now just plain old "Caldhame" on the B974 road between Luthermuir and the Luther Water. I suspect that "Muirton of Inglismaldie" is no more and is under the pine trees planted within Muirton Plantation by the Forestry Commission. That ground used to be moor (or muir) land until they planted thousands of trees on it. Hope this helps.
