Does anyone know if any Huguenots settled in Lanarkshire? I have found an ancestor called Isobell Muter and I believe the Muters came over from France sometime before the 1750s and 4 brothers settled in the Stonehouse area of Lanarkshire, 3 on farms, and 1 to Edinburgh where I think he went into textiles.
        Just wondering if anyone has come across Huguenots living in that part of the country.
                     Many thanks  Linda.

I am currently researching ny family tree and have info about Muters(Mutters) in Scotland which was collected by my maternal grandmother. An Isobel Lahoar appears on that tree. Will send the info if you like.There is also a Lanrkshire connection(Larkhall) Do get in touch. Morag Thomson
