Surnames: Tochal, Tochel, Tolhill, Toughal, Tokal, Tochell,
This message board was created to provide a place where people with ancestors bearing the surname Tochal could communicate with & help each other.
Specifically there were a number of families bearing this name in the Glasgow, Lanark, Renfrew area of Scotland in the 1800's & early 1900's who all seem to have originated from Ireland but clues as to where in Ireland they came from are scarce. Also the way the name is spelt in Scotland seems to be very different to how it was spelt in Ireland. Alternative spelling includes Tochel, Tochell, Tochall, Toughal, Tokal,Tochill, Tohill Tolhill.
Would be great to hear from anyone who has an ancestor especially if you managed to trace their irish origins.

Ok. My tree is on Ancestry so you can see it here. Do you have a tree on ancestry or anywhere else or can you elaborate a little more about your Tochal family members?
Cheers,
