Sorry me again. Its possible that George and Margaret Cowie might be in Kent now. They were born in Scotland and had a son called George born 1856 but after that they seem to dissapear and George born 1856 turns up on a ship called John and Jane in 1881 from Kent. But maybe they are someone else in England i am not sure. Could someone see if they can find them in England pleaseeeeeeeeee

Debbie

You'd be best to ask for a birth look up for George on Scotland people ( i think thats what its call.) Some of the info on the IGI you take with a pinch of salt

Thanks Julie...Penny i did have that one but came to the conclusion it might be the wrong one as the surnames don't really fit in as he was staying with granparents when he was 4 but who knows its a bit of a mystery
