They came from Gabinheogh, County Tyrone, Ireland (Northern Ireland). Mary Stuart is descended from the Royal Family Stuart of Scotland. Kirkpatrick states (from George Fleming Paper) that "according to several histories, the first Coulter of our family of whom we have any record was a Norman who came to Engla
RobertCoulter, His People came from Scotland to Ireland in 1747 when he was 27, then to America in 1760 at age 40, Robert and Mary came with there familys. She was a Stuart and her father was Levi Stuart. He fought for Bonnie prince Charles in 1745-1747, then left Scotland.Robert COULTER Left Scotland 1746-47 after the battle of Culloden. Fought on the side of Bonnie Prince Charles. Seems a price was put on his head so he left Scotland.
About 1606 many of these Coulters went to Northern Ireland with Montgomery and Hamilton under King James 1's "plantations" of NI. Coulters were among the first to settle in NI and came primarily from the counties of Ayr and Lanark.
There is up the Coulter Glen the remains of a 9th Century fort of wooden palisades and circular earthen mounds known as "Coo-Castle." "Ku-tir" evolved into "Cultir or Culter," which eventually became "Coulter." Coulter Village was named Culter until this century.
In that part of Scotland, Coulter is still pronounced with the "l" remaining silent -- "C__ter." Lambie, George and Murray discount the idea that Coulter came from the Gaelic/Celtic word "cou", meaning "back-land" or "thin shaped land", because that Celtic form is from a later language that the British Celtic and "Cu-tir" was in existence hundreds of years before the later Celtic/Gaelic language.
