I am a Scottish McQuilken by birth. Family lore always has said that my McQuilkens hailed from Ireland. I have traced back to my gg-grandparents marriage in 1856 in Glasgow Scotland, I have information from Scottish census that states that the couple that I am now trying to trace were born in Ireland, it just says Ireland, no placename.You make a statement about Rathlin, and it not being a big place and that folks interelated, two names you mention are McFauls and McQuilken's, my gg-grandmother was a McPhail, I believe that McFaul and McPhail are one in the same name. Can you enlighten me on any McFaul (McPhail) and McQuilken from that region going to Scotland, directly to the Glasgow area, not to Argyll. Thanks.
