Comment by Glenda Chandler on June 26, 2014 at 4:06pm: Not yet but I am still working on this line.

Comment by Margaret Ott on June 25, 2014 at 11:34am: Glenda, I see you mentioned McGowan family in Indiana. Does your information include Archibald McGowan, born 16 Apr 1819, PA.

BAPTISMS 1736 TO 1819
CHILD NAME ORDER PART - 2 LAIRMENT TO WYLIE
The baptism records should not be confused with records of birth. The earlier ones (up to 1807) only record baptism dates, with very exceptional birth dates shown. Rev. Crosbie notes that dissenters, i.e. those not following the Established Church, did not record births. There are approx. 1400 entries in the first register (1736 to 1819), and 835 in the second (1820 - 1856). The entries have been sorted into alphabetical order, using the child's surname.

21-Dec 1748 Alexander McGowan to Alexander & Mary (Blackstock) at Almorness
06-Apr 1769 Barbara McGowan to John & Elizabeth (McCoughtry) at Cuil
