Helen was born  in Kirkcudbrightshire 1771 and died 21/06/1844 . They had a daughter called Grace born in Lochmaben 1808 _ 1876

What information does the marriage give for him?  No fathers name or occupation or age?

Anything about him on his daughters birth other than his name?

I can only see a BETSY 1808 and GRIZEL 1806 to Henry HALL and Nelly COWAN

1841 Census has Helen born Dumfriesshire.

1841 Census
Lochmaben
John Hurburn   34
Helen Cowan   60
Grace Thorburn   34
Henry Thorburn   8
Jean Thorburn   5
Mary Thorburn   3
Hellen Thorburn   2

I think someone has the 1841 Census for another Helen Cowan, Female Servant born Kirkcudbright


There are 2 other children on F/S.Org, Father as Henry HAW**, Mother Helen COWAN;
JANET 1800 and ANDREW 1803 Moffatt
