Hello list, it's time for my semi annual "hail Mary" to the group hoping since the last time someone has joined who knows my "clan"... My g-g-g-grandfather was James Cowan born about 1780. He married Margaret (?) and can be found in Wythe County, VA through early 1800s and then in Washington County, VA until his death between 1840-1850. He and Margaret are buried in Hagy Cemetary just north of Abingdon. Among their children are Isaac (b 1827) my g-g-grandfather who married Elizabeth Carroll. I have never been successful at chasing James' family down. Which of the famous brothers does he belong to? Any clues or pointers are appreciated! Gary
