Hello Vikki,
I am looking for a John MCQUOWN born Nov 27, 1760 to John and Margaret HERRON MCQUOWN in probably Mt Bethel, Northampton Co., PA. His family moved to berwick and he appears in two census records as follows:
The 1810 Federal Census of Briarcreek Township,Northumberland Co., Pa. has:
JOHN (1) MCCOWAN(JR) with 1 male age 26 - 45, 3 females age < 10 and 1 female 26 - 45.
NAMES REL CENSUS AGE AGE BIRTH DATE
JOHN(1)(JR) Father 26 - 45 [29] 1765-1784 [b. Nov 27, 1780]
____________? Wife 26 - 45 1765-1784
____________? Dau < 10 1801 - 1810
____________? Dau < 10 1801 - 1810
____________? Dau < 10 1801 - 1810
The 1820 Federal Census of Borough of Berwick on page 2 and repeated again for Briar Creek Township, Columbia Co., Pa. page 5 has for the 1st Monday in August, 1820 (Census Day):
JOHN(1) MCQUSWINwith 1 male under age 10, and 1 male 26-45, 2 females under 10, 2 females 16-26, and 1 female 26-45.
NAMES REL CENSUS AGE AGEBIRTH DATE

________? son < 10 1811 - 1820
________? wife 26 - 45 1775 - 1794
________? dau 16 - 26 1794 - 1804
________? dau 16 - 26 1794 - 1804
________? dau < 10 1810 - 1820
________? dau < 10 1810 - 1820
At this point I seem to be missing a son? Do you have birth dates that might fit these census records?
John MCQUOWN'S brother William, sisters Margaret DILDINE and Jane SISTY all moved to Seneca County, Ohio at various times; William in 1823; Jane about 1838 and Margaret about 1810 to Fairfield and in 1824? to Seneca Co.
I would be interested in sharing information.
