I dropped off this list a few years back but thought it time to start looking again. Is anyone out there interested in the area around House of Dun, its associated farms (e.g., Mains of Dun,) and the nearby area in the 18th century? I am searching for information on the origins of George Fullerton, tenant farmer at the Mains from at least 1739 through about 1759. George, b.1707, married Margaret Pirie (Peirie/Perie) in 1739 and had ten children by her. The marriage was recorded in both Dun and Dunnichen records but its unclear which of them came from which location. I've found no one of either name in Dunnichen, one other Pirie near Dun, and some Fullertons scattered about near Dun, but only speculation regarding George's connection with them. In 1759 George and the family removed to a tenancy at Knox of Benholm in Kincardine. I'd be delighted to correspond and share with any other having similar interests. - w -
