I have an obit which says about a great uncle of mine "For a long period he followed the calling of a gamekeeper, and was in the service of Mr. I. Hall, of Balnacoil." Where is that and does anyone know who the Hall family is/was? This was in the early 1900s. Is this Balnakeil?

Balnacoil is indeed in Strath Brora. Balnacoil Lodge is situated just where the River Brora and the Black Water meet. Sorry I don't know anything about the Halls.
