Could some kind person please look for any COLTHUP marriages in Scotland. I do not expect more than one or two, indeed there may be none.

Couldn't find any for either male or female surname of COLTHUP for 1855 - 2009 on an exact search.
For traditional soundex search there are 21 results for female surname and 17 for male surname. But looking at the results none look like Colthup to me and would not sound like that either!!

Thanks Margaret. I am not surprised, but I have one Colthup marriage, Frederick to a Scottish lady called Margaret between 1873 when he was widowed and 1881 which I can't find, and thought it might just have been in Scotland.People: Canton, Wiseman, Colthup, Scrace
Places: Pembrokeshire, Kent.

Do you think this could be them.........
There is a marriage 30 Oct 1874 in Boston Massachusetts between Frederick Colthup,28yrs,Occ Carpenter,born England & Margaret Kerr,28yrs born Scotland.
His parents are Charles & Elizabeth. Her parents are George & Emma. It is her Ist Marriage and his 2nd.I see in the 1861 uk census that Frederick is at home with his parents Charles and Elizabeth. Also in the 1881 his occupation is a carpenter.
The link below should take you to the page.

Can't see a birth for Margaret to George and Emma nor can I see them on any census. Do you know where in Scotland Margaret was born?
Margaret is on the US 1870 census as a domestic servant in the household of a man whose occupation was Joiner - I guess that's how they met if Frederick was a carpenter.

Sorry, I should have said that Margaret's place of birth is given as Stranraer in Wigtownshire. My theory is that the whole family emigrated between 1845 when she was born and 1851 when they do not seem to appear on the census. Then she married Frederick in Boston in 1874 and they returned to the UK before 1881. Both of Frederick's sons, one by his first wife and one by Margaret, emigrated to the US as adults, maybe through Margaret's connections there.People: Canton, Wiseman, Colthup, Scrace
Places: Pembrokeshire, Kent.
