Crowe - Leck, Macosquin, Coleraine

[terrydoo73]

Can't remember if there's a Crowe headstone in Killaig but if not then Macosquin Church of Ireland might be the logical place to check next (many of the Presbyterian stones there seem to be at back and back right corner of church).

Have checked the Macosquin Church of Ireland within the Macosquin village but there is only 1 crowe headstone there who is definately not related to my family tree.  Any other ideas of where I might get a family headstone?

Did you check Killaig churchyard?

OK so have checked Killeague Presbyterian Church.  There are 2 Crowe Headstones and I am not sure if they are what I am looking for.

One is to a Thomas Crowe of Letterloan and the other to George.  There is a James mentioned on this headstone but no wife or family after him and I am not sure if this is William John Crowe's father or not.

Did you get any dates off the headstone- if so I could check my files and maybe give you more details.

My Grandmother is listed as number 6 of William John Morrison and Betty King.  We have her name as Ellen Jane  Crowe Long.  She married Robert John Long in Winnipeg, Manitoba Canada (1911?) They had 3 children.  Ellen Jane died July 18, 1917 and is buried in Winnipeg.  I have visited the Crowe's in Kilmaconnell.

Mention has been made of William John Crowe and his wife Elizabeth King who were married in 1874.  An interesting sidelight on the King family was that Elizabeth's brother, James King died childless in Marion County, Ohio in 1895 and a listing of his many heirs was published -- including "Bettie Crowe" of Leck.  I have attached the legal notice to James King's findagrave entry:

Hugh King had quite a big family!
