Family History

A Memory of Cumwhinton.

My name is John Coulthard. I live in Scottsdale, Arizona U.S.A. My father Alfred John Coulthard spent his whole life researching the family's history back to the mid-1100s, He left me all his research including a book "A COULTHARD" which includes about 150 family genealogy charts and includes original material related to Cumwhinton. This starts with some background on a Richard Coulthard who apparently moved from Hallburn to Cumwhinton in 1750. It provides significant detail about his son Robert Coulthard and his sons, one of whom ran away to Gretna Green to marry an Elizabth Milburn. Robert at one time had the title of Yeoman of Cumwhinton. The documents include hand drawn maps, wills and genealogy charts of descendants who lived in Cumwhinton or left for other parts of the U.K. I wonder if there is anyone still living in Cumwhinton who is either a Coulthard or a descendant of Richard Coulthard who would be interested in these documents?
