Cowie/Cowan Family at Kilsyth
« on: Tuesday 10 March 09 10:30 GMT (UK) »
Please can someone help me I have ancestors that I cannot find what happened to their children.

Thomas Cowie married Margaret Baird on the 1 Mary 1804 at Condorrat, Dunbartonshire they had the following children:-

John Cowie B 1806 at Falkirk died before 1814
Alexander Cowie/Cowan B 4 August 1812 at Kilsyth (he was Cowan this was found in Vital Records)
Helen Cowie B 1813 she married Robert Baxter and I have their children
John Cowie/Cowan b 1 December 1814 at Kilsyth
Jean Cowie B 1817 at Kilsyth this is my ancestor she married John Wilson 20 November 1838 at Condorrat
James Cowie/Cowan 12 March 1820 at Kilsyth
William Cowie born 1824 at Kilsyth

In the 1841/51 Census in Kilsyth I have 2 grandchildren Thomas Cowie B 1829 at Kilsyth and then a Alexander Lochhead B 1835 at Kilsyth in the 1841 Census he is listed as Alexander Cowie.

If anyone knows of this family I would really appreciate if you have any information on them.

Thank you.

Emma

Thanks Billy that is how I found out about 1 of them but there is too many Cowie/Cowan names that I have never checked as I did not want to use up credits to find that they were not mine.  I may have seeking suspicion they may have emigrated but I do not know.

When I eventually get to NRH I will then check all the Cowie/Cowan families then.

Thank you.
