Wow!  You're a walking historian!

It would most likely be Thomas Dougal as that would be the connection to my family, including Alex Duthart.  Thomas Dougal married Mary Hendry and was her second husband.

From the 1925 Wishaw Street Directory.

ALEXANDER COLQUHOUN, miner, No.71 1/2 Carfin Road.

THOMAS DOUGAL, labourer, 221 Low Main Street. (there wasn't an entry for 223).

Hey, I just found some notes I had scribbled down.  Alex Duthart, born 1925, Cambusnethan.  Parents: John Duthart and Martha Taylor, married: 1917 - Shotts.  Martha could have been some close relation to Susan Taylor who was related to my grandmother.

Anything else I find, I'll pass on! Please do the same.   :)

Ok Beth, it was worth a shot and I'm sure someone will post something at some point in the future.

Many thanks again and hope you'll find answers to your thread/leads.

Derek :)

Hi!

Alex was either a cousin (first or second) or an uncle to my grandmother, but I can't remember which.  Once I found the "right trail" I gave up on the Duthart connection, although there is a connection.  Sorry I can't be of any help with the name though!

Hi Beth,

Thank you for the quick reply!

I'm just trying to build up a picture of my mum's side of the family and especially to get to the root of the origination of the Duthart/Douthart name. My mum passed away three years ago and I'm also interested to know more of where the Dutharts have spread to over the years.

I remember being taken to meet Alex Duthart the drummer at a highland games event and being told we were related (second cousin removed?) and that my mum's father came from kiltinney in Coleraine (Born 1892, son of John Douthart). Interesting how the surname interchanges between Duthart and Douthart regularly.

Any info you have surrounding the names would be appreciated. It's funny, but my mum always thought the name came from the french and was a corruption of the surname 'du Toit' and now I find myself now trying to solve the mystery :)

Happy New Year,

Just joined the site after searching on google and finding a hit on Duthart/Wishaw.

I'm the son of Mary Dunlop Duncan (Ray), Born 1933, daughter of Andrew Duthart (coal miner) Bellside,Clelland, & Mary Sutherland, Loch Awe,Ardchattan.
(Married 3rd January, 1918 with a Maggie Douthart as a witness).

My mother's family were based in the Wishaw area and her father, I believe, came from Shotts.
I understand she was a cousin of Alex Duthart the pipe band drummer, so if anyone recognises a connection I'd would love to hear from you and anything you can add to the family tree.

God bless,


Derek

Hi Derek - I have a connection to Alex Duthart, and know much more than I did when I posted this!  I don't know what information I can help you with but I can try!  Likewise, I hope!

Ireland / Re: Bryde or Monck - any idea where these places are?
« on: Sunday 15 May 11 22:43 BST (UK)  »
Thanks for the reply.  After much digging around, I found them right here in Canada to my surprise.  Not what I had been expecting!  These places don't even exist anymore.  I had been told that there was an Irish connection in my family, but so far I've found no link to Ireland.  I was hoping one of the places was it, but no luck.

Thanks very much!!!

Ireland / Bryde or Monck - any idea where these places are?- completed
« on: Sunday 15 May 11 19:21 BST (UK)  »
I've been hunting - and I mean HUNTING - for information on Shirks and Nicholls, and finally found what I think may be the right marriage between the two.  The birthplaces listed for these two are BRYDE and MONCK, but I have no idea where these places are, let alone which country!  Can anyone shed some light on this for me?

Thanks!!
Beth
