Scotland / Agnes Cowan / McInnes (?) - Frustrating Lack Of Success
« on: Wednesday 27 June 18 15:14 BST (UK) »
Agnes Cowan was born in Toronto in 1916 to James and Margaret Cowan, both of whom emigrated from Paisley. Margaret died in 1920 in Canada, and James, Agnes and John (my father, born Toronto in 1914) came back to North Street, Paisley, Scotland in 1921 on the Saturnia. Sometime between 1921 and 1930 Agnes was fostered to John McInnes (1864 - 1931) a Paisley publican and Elizabeth McInnes / nee Cowan (1868 - 1934). I have a family photo dated 1930 with Agnes and "stepfather" John McInnes. I can trace the full history of James, Margaret and John Cowan, plus John and Elizabeth McInnes, but not a trace of Agnes in Scotland's People, Find My Past or Ancestry using both Cowan and McInnes surnames.
I have had help in earlier threads regarding James Cowan. Can anyone offer any suggestions regarding Agnes? I would be very grateful. Many thanks in advance.
