Hi Patrick,
It is indeed Yancrum!
I found it on an old Ordnance Survey Map on the National Library of Scotland website (
http://geo.nls.uk/maps/ , using the maps from 1843 - 1882 which is the first one on the list).
I've attached a clearer version of the map that you posted. Yancrum is about 1 - 2 miles South West of Mid Calder. Sadly, it no longer seems to exist.
Best wishes
