[|Hearth tax records for Argyll and Buteshire]
This volume contains lists of householders liable for the hearth tax in 1694 in the counties of Bute and part of Argyll. There are no rolls for parts of Argyll which were in rebellion at that time (including Mull, Tiree, Coll and Ardnamurchan).

Records seem to be very scattered through the volume so need to go through with more care to make sure we have them all and exclude those which do not belong.
Does anyone want to start giving the modern version of these places?
One day we can create a map with these on, to show the spread of established habitation in the middle of the 1600s. This can be compared to what is on the blaeu-map
