I would be most interested to know where you got the information
alluding to a french connection to the tullett name.  My late
grandfather and his ancestors were believed to come from France to
Canada.  His last name was Toulette. Hardly any information can be
found on this surname.  I know from records that he also used the
sirname Tullette.  Using that name I still found no information.  In
my search I did find that there are a few people who exist with the
Toulette variation.  Any thoughts.
