Moray (Elginshire) / Re: BOWIE /WINKS FORRES 1828 Help!
« on: Saturday 25 September 10 16:28 BST (UK) »
Hi,
Your Great Grandad James Bowie was a Brother of my Great Uncle John Bowie.
John Bowie married a Jessie McLachlan ( my hereditary Great Aunt ) on 11th July 1890 at Dava, Inverallen, Morayshire.
Jessie Mclachlan was the Daughter of Peter McLachlan and Elizabeth McDonald who were married on the 6th April 1864 in Mortlach Banffshire ( Roman Catholic Church ), Peter McLachlan originated from County Tyrone Northern Ireland.
Christine Wink's Father was " George Wink ", Mother " Christina Sutherland "
Christine born about 1810, have not gone any further back in time.
I have traced the Bowies to the present day, a branch live in Shetland, the Mclachlans were the start. my Mother was a McLachlan, her Grandfather was Irish Peter as I call him, this may be of no help to you but it's interesting, we are related somehow.
Cheers
