This may be irrelevant as it is a long time ago when you posted your query however can advise that the twin sons both died. Robert on 20 Oct 1873 and Charles 9 Nov 1877.

My family possibly links back to William COWLISHAW 1815. William COWLISHAW married Anne DURN - (widow)nee SHARP(E). They had 3 children - Henry b 1863, Samuel b 1867 and Susannah b 1969. Do you link to this family?

Cowlishaw family

susanhodgkinson — 2006-05-27 16:20:04Z

I am researching my family tree. My Great Grandfather was Samuel Cowlishaw b. 1867. The birth certificate state that his parents were WILLIAM Cowlishaw and Ann Cowlishaw, late Durn, formerly Sharp(e). His brother was Henry Cowlishaw b. 1863. Henry's birth certificate states his parents as SAMUEL Cowlishaw and Ann Cowlishaw, late Durn, formerly Sharp(e) but his marriage certificate states his father's name was WILLIAM Cowlishaw (Samuels marriage certificate also states William as his father's name). William married Ann Durn (widow) in 1863. Did William also use the name Samuel? If anyone has any links to this tree or is able to shed light on why William may have also used the name Samuel I would be glad to hear from you.

Does anyone have a connection to Cowlishaws in Canada? In particular I am trying to find family related [or family friends] to Frank Cowlishaw who was in the Royal Canadian Engineers based in S. England during WW2. He was killed in Dieppe 1942.

Re: Cowlishaw - Mappin Connection

maisiebeck — 2005-10-09 22:28:44Z

Hi there,
I fell across your letter when searching for Walter Mappin...Anyway..getting way-laid (as you do) here I am...
Johnathan Mappin + Sarah Dalton (m 1760)...amongst thier 12 children =Joseph Mappin + Hannah Newton (m 1786) amongst thier 7 children John Newton Mappin I believe this lineage was the founders of Mappin and Webb. He left also left paintings which started the Mappin art gallery too.
I am connected to this tree via my gr grandad who was a Beck. My Gr Grandmother was a Howe and her mother was a Mappin 1865...from another side of the Mappin branch, but still connected.

It's been so long since your posting I suppose you have found a lot more information...but I felt the need to write...hope you don't mind?
I would be grateful for any information you feel that you may like to share..and visa versa...the tree is very interesting.
Names in themselves are all so interesting, as an introduction to Newton suddenly appears...but why only give one child the Newton name?
The same with the Cowlishaw only John Yeomans Cowlishaw. Marriage to Sarah (I hadn't got Sarah's last name, now I feel I can add it. Thank you.

Children of J Y Cowlishaw + Sarah = John E Cowlishaw 1860 and Frederick Cowlishaw.
J Y Cowlishaws brother was Joe Henry Cowlishaw 1830)
Thier father was John Cowlishaw marriage to Mary Ann Mappin 1828 Sheffield York...He died 1897 Lowa..... this is a little bit of my branch..although I'm addicted..I just can't stop looking for ancesters, and adding them in...where ever they belong!
I wasn't sure where to slot this after reading the other mail......Look forward to hearing from you..
Regards mandy

Albert,,

Can you give me any more details, dates, addresses,etc of your father and grandfather.

Yeoman

PeterDavidCowlishaw — 2005-09-27 18:48:44Z

I don't think that these are positive leads but in the Universal British Directory of 1791 (available on CD ROM) the entry for Sheffield gives a John Yeoman (scissor cutler) and Richard Yeoman (tanner).

There does NOT appear to be a John Yeomans (solicitor) in this directory.

These may however just be false leads but names did change slightly and Yeoman may have become plural.

Hello there,
I am at work so do not have all my work paper work with me. However, I do have extensive info. at home.
My father, Laurence Cowlishaw was born in Bristol, England in 1911(?). His father was William George C. He married Florence Weston. I would be happy to share information with you.
Do you have any info on this Bristol connection? Would appreciate any help
Thank you,

The Cowlishaws Derbyshire

Hi,
I'm researching my family tree and it would appear that my GGGGrandmother might have been a Cowlishaw.
On the 1871 census my GGGrandmother (Ellen Aldred)appears on the form
as living with parents Richard and Sarah Aldred in Horsely Woodhouse Derbys as well as a few brothers and sisters and a Charles Cowlishaw, which I thought was odd as he was only 17 at the time.
After looking at a marriage record I found a match between a Richard Aldred and a Sarah Cowlishaw (b. 1831 in Horsely Woodhouse) in the right location and year. This was a year after Charles would have been born so I'm presuming he was illigitimate.
Does anyone have any info to support this?
It would be great to find out if anyone has any info on Sarah.
Thanks
I.Burton

David, I am also a David Cowlishaw and came across your post on this site. I would be interested in any information you have on your family tree as I am the son of Ray Cowlishaw, who I assume is your cousin. My mother started to research the family name some time ago, but unfortunately didn't get very far before divorcing my father!

I have 2 sons (Joshua 6 & Jack 4) and it would be great to provide them with a family history when they are older.
