Stirlingshire / Re: Tulloch Family, Polmont,Stirlingshire

Hi , Hibee,    I have been aware of this site for some time, what I am trying to establish if my William Tulloch did come from the Orkneys. I have used the traditional naming of family to assume that his father was John and mother Christian, William's only son was John and his second born Daughter was Christian.  I am trying to find some mention of William in any local records in the Polmont area (Bennetstown) where he lived and raised his family.  I have not been able to trace any other Tulloch's before or after.  He married in 1792.

The Tripney name was on one of the other forums where it was mentioned one of his forebears married a daughter of William Tulloch and Susan Alexander who were my GGGGParents.

Regards Bob

I am certain that I have a distant connection to the Tripneys. Susan Alexander was married to my GGG Father, William Tulloch @ Muiravonside in 1792. They had 6 daughters and one son.  Susan's parents were John Alexander and Sarah Aitken. I have been unable to confirm William's parents  but have a feeling he was from North Ronaldsay. His father would be John & his Mother would be Christian using  the traditional naming regime. Using the IGI the only match I could find to fit for his approx age was John Tulloch & Christian in North Ronaldsay,(William was baptised in Sanday the adjacent Island.) If anyone has any info which could confirm this I would be delighted.  I could never find any other Tullochs in East Stirlingshire around this time.
