Hi Monica,
Thanks so much for this! Chances are I have it totally wrong, I’ll have another look at my tree and see where I got the info from. I think I’ll have a bit of correcting to do!
The link to the tree you posted has some familiar names that I have in my tree also.
I really appreciate this, thank you 😊
Laura

Apologies Monica, yes it should be Andrew Wallace not Alexander.

The possible birth you have found for Walter seems to be the most likely, parents Alexander Fowlie and Elizabeth Salter. Walter's marriage and death registrations on SP will let you confirm and be confident in moving back to the next generation.

You are lucky with burial details for the family. This looks to be MI details for Alexander and wife Eizabeth www.findagrave.com/memorial/139229847/alexander-fowlie

Some details on connected Fowlies, siblings to Walter:

Good morning Laura & Monica,

I am in start-up mode for 2023, so am just catching up with your latest posts. Annie "Henderson" can be a bit confusing as there are kind of four of her in SP.

FOWLIE ANNIE HENDERSON
F 1893 222 / B / 7 MILLBREX

FOWLIE ANNIE HENDERSON
F 1897 320 / 11 STRACATHRO

FOWLIE ANNIE HENDERSON
GRAY F 1910 195 / 40 FOVERAN

FOWLIE ANNIE HENDERSON
F 1920 259 / 25 FORDOUN

I have just found I only have two of them in the Fowlie Fx3 database I manage, so some work for me to do there. However, I think the one you are looking for Laura who married Andrew Wallace was born in 1893. Her parents were Walter Fowlie 1860-1917 and Agnes Hutchison 1858-1927. Walter's parents were Alexander Fowlie abt 1819-1888 and Elizabeth Salter abt 1922-1906. Alexander was my great great grandfather.
I have more details going back further if you are interested.
I am interested in your family line where it connects to the Fowlie line. Happy to provide more details as you need them.

Thanks Warren,
Yes, that all sounds the same as I have in my tree, so hopefully I am on the right track then!
So, Alexander Fowlie would be my ggg grandfather, I’m definitely interested in learning more. I have tried to expand my tree, but I have so much that I need to check yet.

Hi Issi,

Hope you are still monitoring this post. I have just gotten back into RootChat for the New Year.
I have read your post several times and can't quite put the details together with what I have in a Fowlie Family (Fx3) database. I will work on it and get back to you once I have it clear how William and Elizabeth fits into the rest of the Fowlie Family.
Thanks for passing on this information

Hi,
I have a Fowlie connection, William D Fowlie, born in Aberdeenshire (can't make out the area), c.1836, m. 6 Nov 1863 Elisabeth Lawson (ggg aunt of mine) in Peterculter. He was a joiner on the 1891 census. There's a family grave including her in Peterculter cemetery, Aberdeen: "...And their Daughter ELIZABETH, Widow of W.D. FOWLIE, who died 2nd Nov 1910, aged 74 years." Sorry, that's all i have on him.

Hi Warren,
yes I'm still  here  :)
I've attached (or tired to) a snippet from the 1891 census, Govan, Glasgow. Their boarder, John Lawson Hay, is a nephew of William Fowlie's wife, Elisabeth. John L Hay is the clerk, not Elizabeth.

If you can work out where William Fowlie was born, please let me know, I first wondered if it was Fyvie but I don't think it is. It's possibly Tyrie looking at possible matches.
The 1881 census (I've just found) has him at 658, Govan Road, Govan, Govan Church, Lanarkshire, Scotland, as a ship model maker (!)
1871 census: 97, Govan & Renfrew Road, Govan, Govan Church, Lanarkshire, Scotland, ship joiner
Ha! Just found his death, 21/7/1903, 67 years old, William Duncan Fowlie, father Alexander Fowlie (miller), mother Isabella Duncan (domestic servant).

So he's probs this one:
First name(s)   William
Last name   Fowlie
Birth year   -
Baptism year   1836
Baptism date   18 Jun 1836
Place   Tyrie
County   Aberdeenshire
Country   Scotland
Mother's first name(s)   Isabel
Mother's last name   Duncan
Father's first name(s)   Alexander
Father's last name   Fowlie
Page   20
Archive Ref   OPR 248/4
Year Range   1820-1854
Item   4
Record set   Scotland, Parish Births & Baptisms 1564-1929
Hope this helps you  :)

Good morning Issi,

Thank you for your lead on William D. (Duncan) Fowlie. I did not have he or his family in the Fx3 (Fowlie Family Forum) database, so had to go hunting for them. The information you provided was very helpful in tracking down the family. I couldn't find a marriage for his parents Alexander Fowlie and Isabel Duncan, but their names are in the SP Index for William's birth.

FOWLIE WILLIAM
ALEXANDER FOWLIE/ISABEL DUNCAN
M 18/06/1836 248 40 / 40 TYRIE

In the 1841 Scotland Census he, age 5, is shown with his mother Isabel Duncan, age 24, at the home of her parents (his grandparents) in Blackhills, Tyrie. Use of her maiden name would suggest she wasn't married to Alexander? In the same 1841 Census, his father Alexander age 29 is with his parents at Croft of Artamford, New Deer.

In 1863, William age 27 (parents named as Alexander Fowlie and Isabella Fowlie, M.S. Duncan - now married?) marries Elizabeth Lawson age 27 (parents John Lawson and Margaret Laws)

Thank you for posting the original information. Showed me that the task of tracking down ancestors will never end, but we keep trying to find them all :)
Best regards, Warren
