They certainly did cover their bases didn’t they! It sounds like the local gentry were well regarded.

The parents of my Mary (b. 1760), James (b. 1761) and John (b. 1765) were James Coull and Elspeth Wiseman – married 1759 Cullen. They were weavers. I haven’t been able to get back further than that but it’s quite likely they are related to your Coull family.Cheers, Anne


Hi Annie.  There were a lot of Coulls in Cullen weren't there :).  I found some useful info on the website of Cullen Monumental Inscriptions.  If you don't know it, google it and it should come up. 
Reckon have gone as far back as can now using online resources.  I am connected via marriage several generations later to the Coull clan.
