Hi Folks,
I'm not sure if the Howat's I'm searching for are the same family family as yours but here is my info:
Homer Howat married a Jane Kilty/Kiltie
Their son James Howat married a Jessie Elizabeth Paterson in 1904 Kirkcudbright
Jane Howat nee Kiltie death: 1891 Kirkcudbright
1891 Census they have 6 children James, William, Mary A, another dau? John & Margaret
1901 a son is added: Homer Howat age 1 so his mother Jane died just after his birth
James Howat married Jessie Elizabeth Paterson in 1904 Kirkcudbright, James is listed as being 23 and Jessie as 21 They are not on the 1911 census, but there is a James Howat on the Ellis Island passenger list age 28 and married can't confirm if this is him, no info for Jessie?
John is on the 1911 Census in Kilwinning single and a gardener, can't find a marriage for him.
Cheers
