Hi Steve, There is a farm called Glenturk near Kirkinner, which isn't very far from Wigtown. It is possible your "a" could be a "u", and the "p" could be a "k". Hope this is of some help.

I have looked up various placename lists and parish lists and can find no mention of a Glentarp. M'Kerlie makes no mention of Glentarp in his Lands and their Owners in Galloway. Has anyone heard of a place or farm callaed Glentarp? Regards,.
