Eascairt Farm, near Skipness, Argyllshire, Scotland also seen as Escairt, Eshirt, Escart, Eskart Sources: -OPR records, years 1783-1854, FHC film # 1041076 {Records extracted from the Skipness Old Parochial Register. There are two volumes of these records on the film. The first volume pages run from p. 78-164. The second volume pages run from p. 1 - 38A. Every other page of the second volume is unnumbered, so I have labeled them the number from the previous page followed by the letter A. I have attempted to group together by family.} -Skipness, Memories of a Highland Estate, Angus Graham From Skipness: Memories of a Highland Estate: "EASCAIRT. This was probably the Tescard of 1481 and the Escarde (one merkland) of 1511; but, as the latter grant includes several places on West Loch Tarbert, its Escarde may possibly be the Escart near Tarbert. It is marked on Roy's map of 1747-55. The farm was held for many years by Charles Maclean, brother of Peter Maclean, my father's factor. It was said that Charles, when sixteen years old, was teaching Latin to the youner boys in the school." {notes on names provided by Frank Bigwood, Wflbigwood@cs.com, historical researcher.
