Burns/Cowan

[Poppy62]

Good Morning
I am looking for some/any more information on Elizabeth Burns married to Samuel Cowan 1865 Newry Ireland her father was either Joseph Burns( stated in marriage) or William Burns (stated on death), her mother was Jane (poss)McCrum.
According to the 1921 census she was staying with her daughter Sarah Alexander and husband in Springburn Road Glasgow. She was 78yrs and census states that she  was born Down, Rathfriland. I have information on her life in Scotland , very limited on her lif and family in Ireland.
I have tried Roots Ireland and Ancestry with no success .
Any idea's where I could look now?

Thank you Heywood for your reply

Yes I do have  the birth certificates of all her children . And the marriage of John and Hetty I believe may be Elizabeth's Burns brother.

I also have marriages for Margaret Burns/ Patrick Cavanagh 1861 and Sarah Jane Burns/ John Boyd 1861 who I believe might be her sisters 

It is more information on Elizabeth Burns  I'm looking for . I don't have a birth/baptism for her or any of the others
Thanks again for your help

I decided to give Roots Ireland another try.

I have found  Eliza Anna Burns and her siblings  all with the same parents Joseph Burns and Jane McCrum

very happy Roots Chatter

That’s good news.
As you wrote that you had limited information on her life and family in Ireland, I thought the John/Hetty information would be useful to you.
