[edit] Aberdour or Aberdeen?

This article seems to indicate that Aberdour and Aberdeen/Aberdeenshire/Buchan are in the same area (which they aren't.) So which was this guy's locale? 66.229.160.94 19:56, 4 August 2006 (UTC)

No idea myself, but there are dedications which may be to Drostan from Old Deer down to Aberdour, via Aberdeen and Arbroath (the Drosten Stone). Always assuming that there was just the one Saint Drostan, which may well be wrong. Angus McLellan (Talk) 20:12, 4 August 2006 (UTC)
There is an Aberdour Bay and House and village called New Aberdour in Buchan, as well as the settlement in Fife, it may be the former Aberdours that is referred to here. User:Felishumanus —Preceding comment was added at 15:16, 9 February 2008 (UTC)
