Title: Place in baptismal record
Post by: SANTUDM on Tuesday 02 February 21 13:50 GMT (UK)

I'm trying to read the name of this place (underlined in blue after Alex. and John Hay¿s?), but can't find anything that matches close to the name in any lists of local places, farms or crofts. Thanks for any help

On first sight it looks like Linthaugh to me....

Thank you very much!! It makes sense, the site (seen on the map) is close to the places and farms where the rest of the family appears  :)
