COWAN and MOSES families
Gloucester and Osgoode Townships
March 25, 2004:
I just was told about your site. I live in Florida but was born and raised
in Ottawa. My Mother was a Cowan of Gloucester Twsp and her mother was a
daughter of Clark Moses of Osgoode Twsp.
I have spent the last two years collecting data stories and pictures of the
Cowan family from Leitrim ON. I don't know exactly what you like to use on
your site or how it works but if anyone is interested in my research I would
be happy to share it with them.

Hi Al.
My interest is in the Cowan Family and their relatives - in laws - that
would include Evans, Murphy DVS, Pratt, Schofield, Barrett, Rolston, Crete,
Hammond, Pollock, Latimer.
I know this is a bit of a wild shot but someone reading this may know if
there was a Cowan in their family.
