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
