The Mull Parishes
The island has seven parishes; Iona, Kilfinichen and Kivickeon, Kilninian and Kilmore, Kinlochspelvie, Salen, Tobermory and Torosay.
The map below gives an approximate idea of the areas covered by the seven parishes.
In 1791-9 and 1845 parish Ministers had to write up descriptions of their parish. These comprehensive descriptions are available for viewing at the following address :- http://stat-acc-scot.edina.ac.uk/sas/sas.asp?action=public&
