John and Janet Tulloch from Sanday

[Tiffaney]

Hi akc,
Noticed after I'd posted mine you had said which cemeteries there are on the Island.  Must have been modifying my post when you posted your last one.
Sanday sounds wonderful...love beaches, sea, seals etc.

Noticed you also have DREAVER & PEACE amongst your family interests.  Mine lived on Stronsay..
.regards,
Tiff

Hi again, my Drever,s and Peace,s are from Sanday and Westray. I found a lot of info on the Cursiter website, but we also have Tulloch,s living in our  houses at some time on the censuses, so I will go back over my previous searches to see if any of them ring a bell!. There are a lot of Tullochs in all 3 cemeteries, but you need to know where they lived.

Hi Hilty, found your John and Janet on Scotlands People and cursiter.com. It appears they had 9 children: Elizabeth 1790, Janet 1781, John 1798, Mary 1789, Sibilla 1799, Thomas 1784, Thomas 1792, William 1796 and William 1801. There are 2 Thomas,s and 2 William,s but sometimes if a child died they would give a new baby the same name! do you know any place names? cant find a marriage for John and Janet but did find a John Tulloch married to a Janet Turfus 1780-1800( no precise date)

Thanks akc for your useful info.  Wrote to a man researching his TULLOCH family, yesterday, unfortunately there was no connection with ours.

I won't run away so take as long as you like.  Have most of my info. on GR or my forum at Ancestral Search.  Will get back to you also if I find more which may narrow them down.

Thank you Laurina, Tiffaney and AKC for all your help.  I have been searching everywhere trying to tie in John and Janet Tulloch as the parents of my ancestor, Thomas Tulloch and cannot find the connection anywhere. 

 The parents of Thomas Tulloch born abt 1793 in Forres, Morayshire are John Tulloch/Margaret Hutcheson. This I know to be fact as they are listed on Thomas' death certificate.
 
I had a lead that Johns' parents might be John and Janet Tulloch....however, after hours of  searching thru Cursitor.com (great website Laurina..thanks) and other websites, I found many many John Tullochs married to Margaret Tulloch....several Margaret Hutcheson's but no way to tie any of them to my Thomas Tulloch.

 John was a farm labourer. as was Thomas who settled in the Bonor Sutherland
area.  The search goes on......

Hi,

I think we're related. My great grandfather, Murdoch, was your grandfather's younger brother. I'm afraid that I'm stuck at the same place as you - can't find anything for John Tulloch beyond what's on Thomas's death cert.

Would be good if you would get in touch and we could share some info. I have some that has come through my side, although generally the family has been poor at passing information down.

Hi Ross
I have just discovered that I am related to Hilty - and now to you!
My great grandfather was Hugh Tulloch, brother of your gg grandfather John Tulloch from Creich.
Not sure whether you are still active on RootsChat - but if you are please get in touch because I have a lot of Tulloch info.

Best wishes
Hugh
