info on Glengenny farm and ... Judi,There are two placenames relating
to Blacknest near Thornhill:
Blacknest
House, about 1 mile east of
Thornhill; and Blacknest Cottages, about 1 mile east southeast of
Thornhill. Go to
(http://www.streetmap.co.uk/)
, type in Thornhill as the GB placename, then click on the East arrow
once. Blacknest House is shown on the online version as
"Blacknest Ho." Blacknest
Cottages is not marked
but the building outline is there.
It's the small square just below and
to the right of the golf course flag. My Pathfinder Map 505 clearly
shows both. Then go
to(http://www.old-maps.co.uk)
, type inThornhill and navigate east and you'll find both of
them.
For
Glengenny,
it is about 3 miles southeast of Sanquhar, not far of the south side
of the A76. Go to
(http://www.streetmap.co.uk/),
type in Sanquhar as the GB placename, then click on the east arrow 5
times, then the south arrow 3 times. On my Pathfinder 494 map, it is
named Nether Glengenny; the online map just says Glengenny. There is
also Glengenny Muir, Glengenny Burn, Glengenny Hill, and Glengenny
Wood nearby. You'll find this farm in old-maps also. Type in Sanquhar
as the place name, then navigate east (about 12 m), then south (about
13 m). John Jardine - Cincinnati, Ohio USA - D&G FHS Member
