Cowe family, Eyemouth
« on: Thursday 12 June 08 12:42 BST (UK) »
[There is no link between my Cowe ancestors and those in another recent post.]
Looking for anyone connected to this family:
James Cowe c1803 and Euphemia Collin 1802 had a large family all born Eyemouth  between c1825 and 1845 - Helen, James, Robert, Andrew, Agnes, William, Joseph, Euphemia, John, Alison, Isabel, Patricia.
James [1803] was alive at the time of the 1841 census but Euphemia was a widow in the 1851 census.

Hi there,

I believe that Helen Cowe (b. c1825) is my great great great grandmother. I am very interested in finding out more about her, especially her marriage to Edward Cromwell (or it could be David Cromwell). I have some more info on the Cowe family from a 3rd party.

Cheers,
Kenny

I had her down as Euphemia Colon not Collin and the 1851 had her as Euphan.

Andrew Cowe ( 1829) married Isabel Rae 1856 Coldstream.
Her parents were Robert Rae & Helen Johnston.
She had a brother Peter Johnston Rae who married a Isabel Aitchison 1866 Coldingham.

Isabel's parents were Peter Aitchison and Isabel Wait, in my wife's tree.

Have the family from the 1851 census but not Patricia and I see that James was a widower but don't have wife.

Kenny, I have replied through G.R.

Beckey, thanks for the reply. Andrew Cowe and Isabel Rae were married 26 Sept 1856, Coldingham; her parents Robert and Helen. I haven't followed up any of her siblings in any detail so far. At the moment I am trying to work out where the Patricia came from. Will look into it later today if I have time.
Euphemia Cowe, nee Colon/Collin has gone under several names but I have tended to use Collin as the main one.

Hello Barry,
Have had a look at my notes and see that I found Patricia's birth on LDS. I have tried the free search on SP which has confirmed that she was chr 7 Jan 1845, Eyemouth. Parents: James and Eu*.
 As she wasn't in any of the census returns I presume that she must have died young.
Thanks for the information about Peter Johnston Rae.

Hi Rae,

Just for info. there are no Cowe burials in the pre 1855 M.I.'s for Eyemouth, a couple of Collins.
Have Cowe,Colven,Rae & Thorburn in Aitchison tree but mainly Coldingham.

Barry.

There is something I found that could be of interest.

A Catherine Susan Rae ca. 1826 Coldingham sister of Isabel, married ca.1850 to Robert Cowe ca. 1828 Eyemouth was living Coldingham 1851.
Catherine died 1897 St Abbs as widow, can't find Roberts death to confirm parents.
1861 Coldingham Shore with James,Robert,Joseph,Helen & Ann.
1881 10 Under Row, Coldingham with Joseph,Agnes,& Annie.

May be a connection.
