Archaeology Notes

NJ26SW 109 c. 21 62

There is a reference in 1581 (Reg Magni Sig Reg Scot, vi, No.303) to lands and rents 'belonging of old to the White (ie. Carmelite)...Friars of Elgin'. The reference properly applies to another order, probably the Greyfriars. (NJ26SW 8).

I B Cowan and D E Easson 1976, 139.
