Hi, Fransmoi
Yes, I've seen the Strichen Woodmans on IGI and wondered about them. They may even be the original bunch. Mine emanate from Turriff and some ended up in Forglen, some in Auchterless (that we know of!) My own direct line developed in Rathven. Apparently the family dropped the "man" about 1800 or possibly slightly earlier.
I'd certainly be very interested in information you can share -
