A few notes on the witnesses that were heard in Breasclete. The census records for the witnesses from the Carloway area are all marked as being in the parish of Lochs. It should be borne in mind thought, that between 1722 and 1891, the area between Dun Carloway and Shawbost (inclusive) was held to be a detached part of Lochs.
Witness Murdo Mcleod, Borrowston, could not be traced in the censuses, as far as I could make out.
