I have limited information due to loss of contact with my father many years ago. I know that my grand father's name is Paul Cowan and he lives in Wyandotte, MI. I know that my grandfather's family came from Ireland, but that is about all I know. I am 26 so I would guess that my grandfather is about 78 or 80 maybe. I don't really have any clue on where to start for information so if anyone knows anything about this family, etc please don't hesitate to email me.
