Yes it is a possibility although it is strange as it is the same Vicar present during the time period who had baptised them as Cullicoat. There is no one name group that I have found. <br />HelenHelen V Smithhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/16418865928294578567noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-388864214259507833.post-60151272752353204322012-06-10T11:37:18.148+10:002012-06-10T11:37:18.148+10:00Wow..I'm so impressed with this bit of detecti...Wow..I'm so impressed with this bit of detective work. <br />I wonder if it was as simple as the way it was pronounced. Maybe the emphasis was more on the Culley bit of the surname and the coat bit was almost cut off and pronounced as "cut" rather than "coat" and in the end people just remembered the Culley and it was too much of a bother to insist on the "coat". Have you looked for a one-name group? There might be some answers there....Alex Dawhttps://www.blogger.com/profile/05083753053051713061noreply@blogger.comtag:blogger.com,1999:blog-388864214259507833.post-18145330137694068322012-05-29T11:15:01.041+10:002012-05-29T11:15:01.041+10:00Maybe one day a record will pop up with a great ex...Maybe one day a record will pop up with a great explanation as to why they changed their names.
