thanks Monica

well i'm Shalunts and not Shalunt.. :) with "s" at the end.. I accidentally found your site and this topic.. i know history of my own family very well, i have a family tree list coming from 1700th years and i have never heard there's such an almost the same surname somewhere in Scotland, because i'm from Armenia, from city named Goris.. so i'm just interested to know anything about "Shalunt" family though i don't think there is a relationship between this two family, but who knows.. there are a lot of armenians in all over the world and maybe someone of my ancestors decided to journey somewhere and he chose for this the Scotland. would really appreciate any information.

Ahhh...I think there may be some confusion here  ;)

This post started by mcleodsyme is regarding the place name of Shalunt in Bute, not the surname or a family with that surname.

Shalunt is the name of a hill farm on the north east coast of the Isle of Bute.
It is north east from Port Bannentyne, & is in the (original ) parish of North Bute.

I'm a descendant of the Fergusons who had the Shalunt Farm in the late 1700's.

Scotland's Places has some info relating to it also giving exact location co-ords.
