“the name Kilmore in Skye… undoubtedly originated when the lands of Cille were divided into the two portions now known as Kilmore and Kilbeag. Moreover, Kilmore – and this may not be an unimportant point – is not, and never has been, I believe, in that form, the name of a parish or a purely ecclesiastical name.”: Robertson The Northern Chronicle June 7 1899
