Surname:
-------------------------

1) Bill Couperthwaite has added the Statistical Accounts for Scotland covering
Barr, Kirkmichael, Dailly, Straiton,
Kirkoswald, Dalmellington, Old Cumnock, and Stewarton on his website and
a link to his main page which contains data on the surname COUPERTHWAITE.

2) Sheena Carmichael has transcribed the following from census returns
for Ayrshire :

Full census return for Hurlford and the surrounding area for 1841. It covers
ED 7 in Riccarton completely for 1841. Part
of Hurlford for 1851, 1861 and 1871 - it was too large by then to do them
all - so 1851 is about 25% (from EDs 4 and
5), 1861 is about 15% (from EDs 4, 5 and 6) and 1871 is about 10% (EDs
4, 5 and 6 again). I took the sample as every nth page (eg every 10th page
for 1871), but ensured it had complete families.

Our thanks to Bill and Sheena.

As usual go to the main Ayrshire GenWebPage and go to the Ayrshire Data
from Census, OPRs & Kirk Sessions page.
