I'm related to Benjamin (or Bennett) and Margaret Cowan who settled in the Missisqoui area in the mid 1800's. They were both born in Ireland, though according to census records were of Scottish descent. I'm trying to find the connection between them and the family of Peter Cowan, who settled in the same area a bit earlier and after whom Cowansville is named. Peter apparently moved there from Montreal at the same time as his brother Andrew. They were of Scottish descent. I'm assuming these Cowan families were related, but I can't find the specific connection. Any information would be much appreciated, or just any information on the Cowan family in that region generally. Thanks!
