Hello Mary,
    Yes, I think we are related. My Great Grandmother was Annie or Ann Cowie, sister to John. Alexander and Jane had nine children as far as I know. John was the second child and Ann was the seventh.
     If you need any further information just let me know. I have kindly been given details about our family tree by cousins of my Father.
       How are the Shetlands? They are on our list of places to visit.

      I would love to know the little things about Dad if you are able to help me .Like the school he went to and which church. My sister and I are shall be in Avoch later this year and we would love to be able to visit his past haunts.

"hello! Vincent jack was conceived and born out of wedlock, he was brought up by his grandmother, Vincent's mother and one of her sisters moved to Australia in the 1930's, one went to Melbourne, the other to Sydney. Vincent moved out to Australia in the 1950's-1960's."
       Ross, I have quoted what you wrote.  Vincent's mother didn't come to Australia, it was his Aunt Jean who moved to Melbourne with her husband Bill. Dad { Vincent } moved to Sydney in 1961.

Hi Ross,
        We met here in Australia shortly after Dad's death. Hope you are all well. It was a nice surprise reading your message. Hi to all. If you want further family history let me know. I don't have much information on Annie Cowie's side but quite a bit on the Jack side.

    Hi Nic,
       Just read your entry. When you have time could you possibly check whether the book includes  Cowie,  Farquhar or Smith in it's listed names.
                               Thanks kindly. Heather

  Sorry Dave,
           I did mention that night duty isn't good for the brain. Please forget last question... I've worked it out.
              Jane {Morrison} Cowie's mother = Lucilia Smith.
                Don't I feel foolish.

    Hi Dave,
        Sorry I'm a bit slow on the uptake. I've been on night duty and it does terrible things to the brain cells.
          You mentioned Janet Farquhar and Lucilia Smith. Is Smith Jane's maiden name or is it Lucilia's?
             Thank you. Heather

    Please disregard my question. I've duplicated this question without thinking. Sorry if I've offended anyone. I wasn't thinking.
