Hi Kirsty,

I wish I knew more. That is all the information I could glean from ancestry.uk as I don't have a subscription. If anyone has access, I would be grateful.

Thank you,
Christine

Midlothian / LOWNIE - Parish Records, census
« on: Wednesday 15 April 09 00:28 BST (UK)  »
I am looking for the family of Alexander Lownie (b about 1816)  found in the 1841 Census for Midlothian. Members are Helen (1816), Alex (1831), William (1833), Elizabeth (1835), Helen (1837) and Jean (1841). I believe my ancestor, William, went to Pennsylvania about 1850 or so. I am trying to trace back his family in Scotland. Any information would be appreciated.

Thank you! Christine

Thanks so much for the quick reply. That might be a bit late for William - his first son was born in 1856 in Philadelphia, but thena again, he might have married young.

I am looking for the birth information of a William Lownie, who emigrated to the United States sometime around 1855-56. In the 1860 US census it states that he is age 29 (b 1931). In the 1870 census he is 43 (b 1827). The only information I have is the he came from Scotland.

His children were:
William Alexander
Elizabeth
Christina
Mary Ann
Michael
Ellen
Carrie

William Alexander's son was named Chester Alexander, causing me to think that Alexander may have been a family name, perhaps the father of William who emigrated??

Not much to go on, but wondered if anyone had access to census for perhaps the 1830s and 40s.
