My family history
Posted by: Richard Cowie Date: May 19, 1998 at 17:33:37
  of 692

I know this may sound a little weird but i am writing to find out if you have any information on my family. I am a fifteen yearold boy living in Kansas USA. My father tells me that my family originaly came from Scotland. As far as i can tell it must have been my Great Great Great Grandfather that move over here.

My father has told me many tales of Scotland and i am wondering if he is telling the truth. He has told me that is used to be illegal to be part of my family because they killed alot of people or some stuff like that. As far as my research goes we didnt kill anyone but were caught poaching on the kings land and or clan name banished from use.

My name is Richard Cowie and my fathers name is Charles Cowie. If this information can be of any help in answering my question i would be much obliged.

Please write back soon
Richard Cowie

p.s.Could Cowley be a variation on Cowie or vice versa
