Does anyone on the list connect to.... Thomas Adams of Magheracross, who married in 1834 a Mary Cowan, d/of James & Susannah of Magheracross? Thomas & Mary Adams immigrated to NSW in 1854. In 1860 Thomas Adams sponsored a Robert Elliott, s/of Robert & Mary Ann (Cowan) Elliott of Clonkeen/Glenkeen to immigrate to NSW. Robert Elliott stated that Thomas Adams was his uncle. This means Mary Cowan Adams was his aunt???? Mary (Cowan) Adams (?his aunt?) was b.1815.... Mary Ann (Cowan) Elliott, Robert Elliott's mother was born c.1793. For Mary Adams to have been his aunt, she would have been Mary Ann Elliott's sister???? If someone has more information about this possible family connection, I would appreciate hearing from you. Many thanks, Carole E.
