Hugh Mulligan
Ridlon writes: "the name in the records was Mulliken, an orthography peculiar to the northern counties of Scotland."From "Regarde Bien":
"Of the family of John Milliken of Boston, whose names are found in the First Church records, Ridlon states that the surname was there spelled as any broad-spoken Scotchman or Scotch Irishman would pronounced it, Mulliken and Mulligen, but we have found not a single instance where one of this branch of the family used the orthography; they have universally spelled their names Milliken or Millikin.
I think the good Reverend was been rather economical with truth here, for it is clear John�s surname was being spelt either as Mulligan or Mulliken (for he evidently extracted his information Appleton�s book) an error of judgement which probably reflects the commonly held view that the surnames Milliken and Mulligan stem from two entirely different roots. I hope that in reading this News Letter, it will have become abundantly apparent that the surname Milliken is a derivative of the old surname of Mullikine alias Amuligane."
