Surnames: COWAN Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/DMQ.2ACIB/51.79.1.1 Message Board Post: I too am a descendant of this line (Cook Is branch) and have been researching without much success. My gr-grandfather is Peter Keith Mackay COWAN. Does anyone have more info on this family - I have since "found" my gr-gr-grandmother Marion Mackay Cowan/Stockwell buried along with her 2nd husband William, son Charles & her mother Isabella Dallas @ Waikumete Cemetery in Auckland where I live. I would like to know if anyone has info etc on their migration from Scotland, when they settled in NZ and perhaps when PKM settled in the Cooks. I will be attending the Cowan Family Reunion in Rarotonga Dec 2005 and hope to fill in some blanks when I get there......any help would be greatly appreciated.
