Title: Cull family Kilsyth and Canada
Post by: Wilton Endeavour on Sunday 18 October 09 16:43 BST (UK)
Looking for information on the following Cull family members. I have David Cull who was born around 1892. He worked as a general labourer. He married Elizabeth Wilson Cull who was born around 1892. I'm not sure if they were both born in Kilsyth as I can find no trace of them on the SP website.
But they did have two children who were later born in Kilsyth.
William Cull born 1911 Kilsyth was the son of David and Elizabeth.
David Cull born 1912 Kilsyth was the son of David and Elizabeth. David b1912 married Cecilia Bow in Kilsyth on 12th June 1936. He resided at Manse Road in Kilsyth when he got married in 1936. He possibly emigrated to Canada.
David and Cecilia had two girls born in 1937 and 1945 and it's believed they went to stay in Canada too.
I'm posting this on the Canada list too incase anyone knows of them having emigrated to Canada.

yours

Hi,
I'm not sure whether this is David Cull Snr.

The Scottish naming pattern works for David and Elizabeth's children, ie, 1st born named after father's father and 2nd born named after father.

FYI Milton is not too far from Kilsyth, depending on location within the parishes, could be about 10 miles)

Yes...Most of family came to Canada..David Jr., William, Annie, Margaret and Robert; though all but 2 of David and Lizzie's grandchildren were born in Scotland. David Jr. and Cilia (as we called her) were my aunt and uncle.

Looking for information on the following Cull family members. I have David Cull who was born around 1892. He worked as a general labourer. He married Elizabeth Wilson Cull who was born around 1892.
Was this Elizabeth, maiden surname Cull, middle name Wilson, or Elizabeth, maiden surname Wilson?

Strange, because the SP index has a marriage of David Cull to Elizabeth Wilson in Kilsyth in 1910 (which answers my previous question. She was Elizabeth Wilson or Cull).

Elizabeth's maiden name was Wilson.  My living relatives are sure that David originally came from Ireland.

Has anyone looked at that marriage certificate to check that David Cull who married Elizabeth Wilson was the son of William Cull and Elizabeth McCulloch?

Also the birth certificate of David Cull in Glasgow Milton in 1888?

Hello Forfarian,
Since it was me that did the initial request and it being part of my family tree. I decided to follow up the last request that you made.
David Cull, Coal Miner, married Elizabeth Wilson, Domestic Servant at Burngreen Hall, Kilsyth on 25th March 1910. David's parents were William Cull, Coachman and Elizabeth McCulloch. Elizabeth's parents were William Wilson, Labourer and Elizabeth McBurnie. 
David Cull was born on 18th October 1888 at 41 Burnside Street, off Garscube Road, Glasgow. It lists his parents as William Cull, Stableman and Elizabeth McCulloch. David's parents were married on 18th March 1881 at Milton, Glasgow.
It also lists Margaret Leggat, Maternal Grandmother, as being the informant of the birth at the address in Burnside Street above.

Well, that seems to settle that fairly conclusively. And you know that it was David's father who came from Ireland.

If you now look at that 1881 marriage certificate, you should get the names of all of David's grandparents.
