I am trying to find birth details etc for a John Harrower born in Edinburgh. I have his marriage certificate to Frances Thornton on the 24th March 1844 in Durham. It gives both their ages as being 'full'. His father's name is given as Andrew Harrower a Mason. I have found John and Frances on the 1851 England Census and it gives his age as 33 years and shows him being born in Edinburgh. I have looked on the Scotlands people website but am unable to find any details of his birth or any trace of him on the 1841 Scotland census. I have found marriage details for a Andrew Harrower to a Jane or Jean Paxton on the 10.7.1812 in Leith South, Edinburgh and also details of their chilrens birth's but their no trace of a John.

Author: WendyCunningham69 Surnames: HARROWER, BEVERIDGE ,CANT AND SHIELDS Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.harrower/36/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Could anyone please help me trace information on John Harrower b 1870 Clackmannan. He does not appear on the 1871 census. On his marriage certificate to Marion Shields it details his father as Colin Harrower b1852 and mother as Isabella Beveridge b 1846. However, I can find no details on Isabella Beveridge or marriage certificate for Colin and Isabella. John has siblings Elizabeth b 1868, Helen b1874, Janet b 1880 and Isabella 1876. Elizabeth is not on the 1871 census either and this would mean that Colin was only 16 when she was born. The plot thickens in that there is a family called Cant on the 1871 census who has listed Isabella Cant, John Cant and Elizabeth Cant all with the same dates of birth. Can anyone find out if John Harrower was originally a CANT and also Whether Isabella Beveridge married John Cant first and then Colin Harrower.? Thank you in advance for anyone who reads and replies to this message. Wendy Important Note: The author of this message may not be subscribed to this list.

Where are you from?.. I am John William Paul Harrower born in Sydney 13011952. Father John Raymond Harrower, his Father William Hutton Harrower from Alva Glen in Scotland. There is quite a few Harrowers buried in Alva Glen cemetery. We were there a few times and going back next year also. There are still Harrowers living in the town and know quite a bit of the history. Not sure whether your enquiry fits into my family tree but I will check some details at home and get back to you. I am married to Maureen Harrower and 2 daughters Tracey and Michelle. 29 and 23.

Author: secretsmiles_x Surnames: Harrower, Snadon Classification: queries Message Board URL: http://boards.rootsweb.com/surnames.harrower/35/mb.ashx Message Board Post: Hi there. My name's Bryony Harrower, I'm 14 and I've been trying to trace back my Harrower ancestry. However, I have a slight problem. I've been using ScotlandsPeople.gov.uk to find records, and I've managed to get back to the 1840s on some lines. Unfortunatley, I have had unbelievable trouble finding the birth certificate for William Harrower. My grandfather's parents, Jane & Thomas Harrower were cousins. Therefore Jane's father and Thomas's father must be brothers. Thomas Harrower is the child of Peter Harrower and Mary Snadon. Jane Harrower (her maiden name is Harrower) is the child of William Harrower and Agnes Anderson. William and Agnes were married on the 1st January 1868 in Clackmannan. However, when I looked up their marriage, there was only a marriage between ANDREW Harrower and Agnes Anderson, on that date. Is this significant? I have checked both Old Parish Registers and Statutory Births countless times. Nothing makes any sense. I seem to be able to track Peter on the 1871 Census. I may need to re-check this as it was a while ago that I researched it. I haven't got a birth for Peter either. Finally, William Harrower died in a coal mining accident. He was an ironstone miner. How would I get details on this accident? Sorry for this long post. I would be grateful for any help, and would love to chat to fellow Harrowers!

Cheers, Martin

We do enjoy researching the Harrower family tree and exchanging information. It is not a common surname in the US. I plan to visit Scotland, when the present world turmoil subsides a bit, to find out more about my immigrant ancestor, Peter Harrower. Peter was born 08 June 1759 in Cleish, Kinross, Scotland and died 01 January 1827 at Perth, Fulton County, NY, USA. Supposedly [no proof] he was a son of John Harrower and Margaret Thomson who lived and died in Cleish. This is where my "brick wall" is built. When I was in southern England [Guildford, Surrey] in 2000 I learned that many, but not all Britons are not interested in genealogy and do not care to hear about it. I learned to keep my trap shut in pubs and discuss other things such as how Manchester United was doing. Oh for a pint of Worthington's bitters instead of American "fizzy pop"! The rootsweb list is a great resource to get ideas on where to look for lineage facts and documentation. My paternal grandmother, Ruth Vera Harrower 1893-1985, was the last Harrower in my line.

Delaware County NY records say that David Sr died shortly after the War of 1812-14 but not when. Or where. Many burials were lost in that county when Pepacton Dam was created. The biog states he was buried on the farm. Premise - Benjamin b 1791 isn't enumerated anywhere I've found for 1820 or 1830. Suppose that the 1820 & 1830 censuses were Ben b 1791 with his father or fatherinlaw born 1760s in the home. It should not be David Sr. Perhaps there is a burial among those with that Ben of a man born close to 1763 who may have been Ben's fatherinlaw. Lucy Crandall could be a widowed sisterinlaw - Benjamin's wife's sister. Another note - to search census for 1790 what will become Delaware Co, see Middletown at Ulster Co NY. I didn't however find the Harrowers there but did find a 1790 record at the dcnyhistory site.

He came from the east with his wife and two sons, David and Dugal, in the summer of 1779. Harrower eventually built a cabin and constructed a farm on a knoll near the Delaware River. In 1792, Harrower obtained the title to his land, which contained about 950 acres. The house on the property was known for many years as the "Harrower Mansion" and in 1890, was razed. David Harrower, Jr. grew up to become pastor of the first church in Walton and Dugal lived in town until his death in 1842. Harrower himself passed away shortly after the War of 1812." That describes why I don't know how Benjamin b 1763 Scotland is related. It's possible he was living 'just over the county line' in Chenango but doesn't show up until 1820 & 1830 censuses in Steuben Co. He sure had a housefull. --- Where did you ever find a reference to Dugal having married a Brown, and another Susan Brown Harrower b 1806?

Benjamin Harrower who was Rev.David's son would have the family bible. The papers I received came from the Steuben county hist.center and it appears that one of John Lilburn Harrower's daughters did all the family research for this area.I am sending away for information for Delaware county this week,and we hope to go there in the fall to see the area...I am also in the future going to track down Benjamin Harrower's descendants and see if they have anything. I know that John Lilburn Harrower's grandchildren may actually have documents,but the key is finding one that is alive.(Smiles) Have u seen a census with Dugald in it? I haven't seen any with his name on it.Could it be that he lived with his family til he died in 1842?At this point I really think we are in dark on a couple of things,but I don't have information on Dugald's side and I can only go by what I have and it seems that Rev.David had 2 children born in 1805 and they were Eliza M and David Porter Harrower.Rev.David and his children were well known in the Steuben county that it seems things are well documented .But,now I really need to get the information from Delaware county.
