"Inhabitants of Cecil County, Maryland 1649-1774" by Henry C. Peden *This is a book of lists and doesn't go into detail MCCULLOCH- pg. 128 Taxable persons in Cecil Co. in 1752 Archibald and John....also one name with page torn starts McC....... pg. 74 List of Insolvents in St. Mary Ann's Parish in 1764 Returned to the Worshipfull Justices in 1765 by Richard Thomas, Sheriff of Cecil County. James McCulloch - in Baltimore pg. 107 Cecil County Debt Books (name, tract, year) McCulloch, John- Addition, Providence- 1749, 1754 MCCULLOH-( others found with different spellings_ pg. 63 Overseer of the Roads appointed in 1760 John and Archibald McCullough for North Susquehannah and Octorara Overseer of the Roads apppointed in 1762 Samuel McCullough Overseers of Roads Appointed in 1765 Samuel McCulloh Overseer of the Road to Charles Town in 1766 James and Archibald Macullagh Samuel McCullough for North Susquehannah MCCULLOUGH- PG. 61 List of Amerciaments (Persons owing Court Costs in 1773) Archibald and William McCullough pg. 69 Constable Nathan Baker's List of Persons Paid for Squirrel Scalps Destroyed in 1761 James, Samuel and Archabald McCullugh This is all I have in these two books...I do have the Chester Co, PA Will Books if you haven't used those sources, McCullough's mentioned in the one I checked. When the Mason Dixon Line was surveyed many people found themselves living in PA instead of MD or vice versa...as mine did. Also, there is mention briefly of two McCulloughs in "Nottingham Quakers". I just returned from MN(30 mi N. of Minneapolis) on Thursday...had great weather while there except for the last day of cold rain. Let me know if you would like these others looked up.
