This is a Message Board Post that is gatewayed to this mailing list. Surnames: Cowan Classification: Query Message Board URL: http://boards.ancestry.com/mbexec/msg/rw/DMQ.2ACIB/1083.1.1.1 Message Board Post: I guess that all of would like for you to post more info on your line so that we can ponder if you branch from our different Cowan lines. With so many different marriages and the possibility that there are a lot of other male Cowan children out there it would be interesting to tell you about the Cowan Surname DNA Project. I think that it might at some time shed some light on your Cowan line. Do you know why your Grandfather traveled so much?? Tell us more now that you have our attention - the more you tell the more help the Cowan researchers can be to you.
