From Where Does The Surname Originate? meaning and history
From the manor of Troup in the parish of Gamrie, Banffshire. Nisbet says that Troup of that Ilk ended in an heiress who married a younger son of Keith, Earl Marischal. There appears also to have been land of this name in Ayrshire, as there is mention of the half-lands of John of Trowpe there in a charter of c. 1370-80 (Laing, 64). Hamund de Troup of Lanarkshire rendered homage in 1296. The seal attached to his homage bears a hawk (pigeon) on ground; crescent and star, and S' Hamiln de Trvp (Bain, II, p. 198,550). In 1304-5 Hamelyn de Trup 'le fiz' complained to Edward I against attacks of Sir Duncan de Feringdraute (ibid., 1734-5). Hamelin de Troupe was one of those accused of treason in the 'Black Parliament' held at Scone in 1320 (Hailes, II, p. 120). A succeeding Hamelin de Troupe or Truppe had provision of a canonry and prebend of Aberdeen in 1332 (Pap. Lett., II, p. 385), and in 1345 his petition for the church of Inchebrioc in the diocese of St. Andrews was granted (Pap. Pet., I, p. 86). William de Troup, son and heir of quondam John de Troup, granted the lands of Craigy in the Mearns to John Gray of Broxmouth in 1357 (SCM., V, p. 247), Finlay Troupe in Kincardineshire is in record, 1481 (RMS., II, 1468), Thomas Troup was burgess of Linlithgow, 1538 (Johnsoun), and Richard Troup, macer, is in record in 1561 (ER., XIX, p. 135). Normond Trupt was admitted burgess of Aberdeen, 1611 (NSCM., I, p. 108). Gordon of Rothiemay, who was his contemporary, (erroneously) affirms that 'Martin Harperson Trumpe, the admirall of Hollande, was the son of a Scottish father, One Harper, borne at Peeterheade in Buchaine" (History of Scots affairs, III, p, 84).
