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

Hope this helps you

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.
