Surname Changes<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

I have two documented reasons for surnames having been purposely changed in subsequent generations. One is about Edward Cuthbert from Cumberland, England, who migrated to Oldpark, North Belfast, Ireland in the mid-1800s. In Belfast he found that the surname Cuthbert was virtually unknown, but that there were plenty of Cuthbert families. He eventually gave up trying to correct folks about his surname, and when he married a Belfast girl, he did so as Edward Culbert. This family continued to use the Culbert surname in Ireland, but then switched it back to Cuthbert when members returned to England. [24]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

The other story concerns Robert Culbert, born in County Armagh, Ireland, who served in the British Army and left with his family for Canada in 1847. Robert died en route, and his children were taken in by French Canadian families in Quebec. In an effort to better assimilate them into their community, their surnames were changed to Colbert and Cuthbert. [25]<\/p>\n\n\n\n

All instances of name changes to and from Culbert in subsequent generations that I have identified can be found by going to Reports menu on the Culbert One Name Study home page at: Culbert Family Genealogy Project<\/a>.<\/p>\n\n\n\n

Surname Variants<\/strong><\/p>\n\n\n\n

What follows is my list of surnames that may be related to Culbert, which have been encountered so far in my ongoing research. They have been arranged under the parent surname from which they may be derived. For only a few of these surnames is there documented evidence that they are actually related to or used interchangeably with Culbert. None of them are researched in the Culbert One-Name Study except where documentation has been found that shows a connection.<\/p>\n\n\n\n
