I've searched the marriage records in both Ireland and Scotland to the extent that I know how and found no trace of a Slowey/Davidson union. And I have no place of origin for either, but since there seem to be more Sloweys around and about Monaghan than elsewhere, that is where I am looking. John J. Slowey (b. 1841) and Elizabeth Davidson (b.22 June 1842/1847) are a set of my ggrandparents. Family history says that they were Irish, however their 1st two children were born in Glasgow. They were Elizabeth, b. 17 Feb 1866, and James, b. about 1868. John J.and family emigrated to North America in 1869/1870. They are not found on the passenger lists of East Coast ports, so perhaps they entered N. America through Canada, although I've not found them there either. They are found in the city directory of Allegheny City (now North Pittsburgh) in and after 1870. Three more children were born there, Eleanor, Catharine, and Mary Josephine (my grandmother) In 1876 they moved to Pine Bluff, Arkansas. They are found there in the 1880 census. John died in about 1883, but Elizabeth lived on to move to St. Louis, MO in about 1893 Frank Gebhart frankge@sprintmail.com
