Hi Piffy

I get up here as well ;D
A quick look at the index would suggest that it will be the Inverness-shire board.

For purposes of genealogy, Barra is in the county of Inverness.
Never trust anything you find online (especially submitted trees and transcriptions on Ancestry, MyHeritage, FindMyPast and other commercial web sites) unless it's an image of an original document - and even then be wary because errors can and do occur.
