Can anyone on the list tell me if William Cowan born 26 Mar 1795 married 1819 Elizabeth Reed/Reid was the son of George Cowan born 4 Sep 1763 and Marjorie Scott born 5 May 1770? OR Was he the son of Elijah Cowan born 1771 and Prudence Stovall born 1773? AND Was Elijah and George brothers, sons of William Cowan and Sarah Stewart? I have tried to find my Cowan greatgrandparents for almost 10 years! George and Marjorie Scott's son William and wife Elizabeth Reed/Reid sound likely since my grandfather William Andrew Cowan named his first son John Scott Cowan born 1877 and for the fact that in an 1870 census William Andrew and his brothers James and John were in the household of an Ann Reed/Reid . PLEASE help me if you can................... Linda
