I edited what appeared on this page as it was copied from a piece from the early 1900's which read: Cumnock and Holmhead, a police burgh of Ayrshire, Scotland, on the Lugar, 333/4 m. S. of Glasgow by road, with two stations (Cumnock and Old Cumnock) on the Glasgow and South Western Railway. Pop. (1901) 3088." I moved the edited version to the History section: "At the beginning of the last century, Cumnock and Holmhead lay in the parish of Old Cumnock (pop. 5144), a police burgh of Ayrshire, Scotland, on the Lugar water, 33¾m. south of Glasgow by road, with two stations close by on the Glasgow and South Western Railway. With a population in 1901 of 3088 it was a thriving town, with a town hall, cottage hospital, public library and an athenaeum. Coal and ironstone were extensively mined in the neighbourhood, and the manufacturers included woolens, tweeds, agricultural implements and pottery."

There may well be some useful content in your edit to John de Soules but it was very garbled, could you please make some attempt to tidy it up. PatGallacher (talk) 00:18, 7 November 2009 (UTC)
