Title: 1901 Census lookup . Gowing/Gowan/Gowen from Laois
Post by: Lance Matthews on Friday 08 February 13 17:13 GMT (UK)
I am looking for Elizabeth Gowing born Queens Co. in about 1879. Father, Elijah. Mother: Jane.
She married 05.08.1908 at Geashill, Co.Offaly to Robert Samuel Matthews. Found them both + daughter in Co Cork, in 1911 Census.
Just wanted to know where she was in 1901. I know she was not with her family from Clonsoughy.
I have looked in the English census, not there.
Could be badly misspelt, as the name is shown as Gowan/Gowen/ Gowing/Gowning.
All help appreciated

99.9% certain.
Bagnall's were Matthews relatives.
I am still researching the Justin's from Laois & Offaly.

Many thanks for this priceless piece of information.
