The Allt Odhar (Moy) Interstadial site
No full textThe
Allt Odhar
site [NH 798 368] lies at c. 371 m OD on the Moy Estate, some 16 km
south
-
east of Inverness (Fig. 100). Preserved within a sequence of glacial deposits,
there is a notable bed of compressed peat containing pollen, insect remains and plant
macrofossils (Me
rritt, 1990b
,
1993
). Analysis of pollen, plant
-
macrofossil and beetle
remains has allowed a detailed reconstruction of environmental conditions during an
Early Devensian interstadial. The close proximity (9 km) of this site to
Dalcharn
is of
significance be
cause they are the first sites from the mainland of Scotland to provide
evidence of wooded conditions during both an interstadial and an interglacial period
of the Middle or Late Quaternary. The deposits also have significant potential for
establishing a d
etailed glacial history of the area

Robert C. Merritt (1867-1948), son of Mary Page and Lewis Larkin Merritt, was born in Sampson County, N.C. He was married Fannie Reid Poisson and later Carolyn Barker. He worked for the United States Corp of Engineers for over 53 years, mainly out of the Wilmington, N.C. office. He was the only civilian to serve as District Engineer (1917-1919). He is buried in Oakdale Cemetery.
Fannie Reid Poisson Merritt (1874-1907) was the adopted daughter of Mary Alderman and William Poisson. She was married to Robert C. Merritt and was a native of Wilmington, N.C. She is buried in Oakdale Cemetery.
William Mondonville Poisson (1818-1900) was a native of Wilmington, N.C., and the son Jehu Poisson. He married Mary Alderman and had one adopted daughter, Fannie Reid Poisson. He worked for the Wilmington and Weldon Railroad for 23 years. He later worked as a bookepper for Adrian Vollers and then Wilmington Iron Works. He was a Mason and Secretary of St. Johns Lodge AF &AM. He was also a member of Grace Methodist Church. He is buried Oakdale Cemetery.
Mary Alderman (1839-1899) was a native of Wilmington, N.C. and the daughter of Alfred Alderman. She married William Poisson and had one adopted daughter, Fannie Reid Poisson. She is buried in Oakdale Cemetery.
Florence Relinda Dickens Faucette (1859-1947) was married to Charles William Faucette and resided in Halifax County, N.C. She was the daughter of Issac Faulcon Dickens and Louisa Elizabeth Browning.
William Dollinson Faucette (1881-?) was the son of Florence Dickens and Charles William Faucette.

Ardersier Peninsula and the Ardersier Silts Formation
No full textT
he Ardersier Peninsula is formed mainly of rhythmically bedded silts and
sands of probable glaciomarine origin (
Ardersier Silts Fm
), locally capped
by till, and trimmed on the north and west sides by Late Devensian (late
-
glacial) and Holocene (postglacial or Flandrian) raised shorelines. The
peninsula rises to an altitude of about 40 m OD, but the highest marine
features are shingle ridges at 28
-31 m OD, below which lie late
-glacial
shoreline fragments at altitudes of 28.5 m, 26.6 m, 21
-21.6 m and 18.5 m
OD (Firth, 1984, 1989b) (Fig. 30). The prominent ‘Main Postglacial
Cliffline’ borders raised shingle beach ridges at about 11 m OD (see cover
photo). This prominent abandoned cliff
line was generally thought to
have been created by marine erosion
during the Holocene, but it is now
considered to have been formed mainly in the cold climate of the Loch
Lomond Stadial (Younger Dryas) and that the feature was only trimmed
during the mid
- Holocene
( Sissons, 1981a). The peninsula includes
important evide
nce for a significant glacial readvance within the
Inverness Firth, termed the
Ardersier Readvance
by J.S. Smith (1968,
1977) or the
Ardersier Oscillation
by Merritt et al. (1995)
