Derry (Londonderry) / Re: Crawford/Lindsay family
« on: Thursday 21 November 13 15:24 GMT (UK)  »
Greetings, 
This is my first post to rootschat.  My father, Andrew McDowell and Husulo's mother, Mae, are first cousins.  I found the marriage license application for Alexander McDowell and Sarah J. Crawford in Snowshoe, Centre Co. PA.  I thought it might have some info on her parents but at the time of her marriage she was under the guardianship of Alexander's father also named Alexander.  My notes say that they were both residents of Snowshoe.  They were married by a Methodist minister in Bellefonte.  The elder Alexander was born in Co. Down and then moved to Scotland for work first on the construction of the railroad and then later in the coal mines.  The younger Alexander was born in  Lesmahagow, Lanark, also lived in Carnwath and moved to the US in 1881.  I'm not sure where or when Sarah and Alexander met. 

I'd like to hear from Husulo.
