Included in them was a "List of Population of the Tenantry in the Parish of Eddrachillis" (including householders) for November 1826. Tenants of Lord Reay are also included. The list is grouped by township and provides the following details: - Name of tenant or householder (including widows) - Residence - No. of males in household - No. of females in household - No. of cattle under a year old - No. of cows - No. of sheep - No. of horses >From my amateur knowledge of the parish(es), it appears that the lists for most townships have survived, apart from Scourie township itself (if it existed at that time). The heads of households for 59 "Scouriemore" individuals appear however, but I am unsure if the parish coverage is 100%. Please let me know if I can search for an ancestor for you.
